HERE WE GO--MARCHING RIGHT ALONG--

 Actually it was a '3' ring carnival around here all week--it was resident appreciation week--so they had some fun things going on--and the lobby and dinning room all decorated to look like a carnival--I did not join in much--not really my thing and those darn needles I have are always calling my name!!!  ( also learned we had 9 cases of Covid in the last 2 weeks in the building-not good--one just about thinks it's gone for good--and pop goes the Wiesel-it's back--or really still here!!)

So what did I do this week--if not party'n???

I got this week's County block done--

This is a 5" square log cabin block--that I hand pieced--haven't done any hand piecing in awhile so it was fun to do--(others did machine sewing on this one--you know me--gotta be a bit different)--and I was soooo happy to have it come out a perfect 5" square--even though the photo doesn't look it--must be the angle of the camera. 

And here is this week's heart block--

This still needs a button on the two bottom pieces--but that will be added after all the blocks are together and hand quilted--

And here  is this months -monthly square from Melisa for August-

cute flowers and birdies--

and here we have all 8 months so far--

All blocks are done in shades of pinks and greens--

And I got this smaller set of the sisters blocks all squared up and the outer border sewn on them--

I want to do something on this outer border to break up the blue a bit--just not sure what yet--do have a couple ideas though?????????????

And here is Block 4 of Mr. Jack--

Oh my this took forever to get done--and ----you know me--I added a black cat to this one--the mystery story was about a black cat--and in this chapter the 'Owl' is talking to him about not being afraid--so he needed to be in it to listen to the owl--right????

And here is this weeks appliqued Christmas hearts-

not as many--as  I was doing other hand work--

And I can't believe it--but look at my Impatient plant--

It is still blooming away--I have never had a plant keep flowering so well inside-yea!!

and here is the thyme plant-I guess it's gonna get big some day??

Oh and  I did go on  an adventure on Tuesday--before going grocery shopping, my friend Cheryl and I went to a Mexican restaurant  that is in the same plaza--now I have walked past this place for 4 years--but never went in--actually--I have never really been to a true Mexican Rest--It was very nice inside and busy and the food was huge and very tasty--I had lots of leftovers!!  Will be going back for sure--

And here is a pretty plant I seen on the way over to the Post Office on Monday to  mail my friend in NY, her Birthday box--

WELL--MY BLOG FRIENDS--THAT'S ALL I HAVE FOR THIS WEEK--CAN YOU BELEIVE IT IS NEARLY SEPTEMBER--AND YOU DO KNOW WHAT COMES AFTER SEPTEMBER???? CHRISTMAS!!!!

HUGS, DI
