HOPPING RIGHT ALONG---

I seem to be 'hopping' right along on several projects--I guess that is what keeps me so 'young'--all the hopping around I do!!!!

First up-- Block #2 finished for the Mr. Jack mystery club-

 it was fun stitching the green frog--haven't done a frog in a long time-

Here is Block #1 and #2 so far--we will get a new block Mon or Tues this week and I do order the kits so will be Fri/Sat before I can start work on it--gives me something to look forward to !!!!

And I created a 'Lady' this week in counted cross stitching--

she still needs her straw hat and then I will probably start on the ABC's on this chart

Here is Friday's heart block--

I kept it simple this week--need some simple ones in the quilt too--

and talking about hearts--I got '2' embroidery heart blocks done--one last week and one this past week finished--

And I have started the 3rd on in this series last night--there is a total of 4!!

And-- got the next block done on the Spring embroidery by Joy--

The flower pot is the newest one--just one more area to fill on this one!

And I made this mess on the cutting table this week--

squaring up some 4 1/2" blocks--now to decide how I want to lay them out and stitch them--was thinking I would do them in a pinwheel style and I would get 9 blocks that way--but?????

and my little aqua tub--that I have been putting my leader/ender pieces in from sewing 2-2" squares together got full--so I pressed the out and put them in a bag and now I can keep sewing them--lots to go yet--

and I finally got last months orange strips sewn together and this months blues ones sewn!

 Here is this week's applique hearts--

Plus--everyone is talking about all their flowers growing in their gardens and I am so jealous that they can do that and I can't--at least not outside--but here is a progress report on my new red Impatient plant-

So far so good and there is alot of buds still--!!!

And this is my thyme seeds--

They do not seem to be growing very much--so I decided they need more sun--so put my new mug to good use and now it is taller and will get better sun in the window, so we will see what happens???

Well I am out of photos that I down loaded for the week--so must be these are it--though I did do some hand quilting on the sail boat piece and of course I do knit some, everyday, on a baby sweater--!!

WELL--SUMMER IS OFFICAL THIS WEEK--DO YOU DO ANYTHING SPECIAL ON THE FIRST DAY OF SUMMER TO CELEBRATE?????

TAKE CARE--DI

Happy Father's day---my Dad was a good fixer--when he decided to get around to it--he was always busy in the wookshop working on something!
