Having a great time with the visitors...........we went to the dam for a walk and I snapped this photo - part of an old gate..........got my "favourite colour" post done for snappy friends today too..........
Finally got some sewing done..........Tutti has some skirts finished and I made 2 more blocks for the Fat Quarter Shop BOM.............I did such a good job motivating Nancy she got going and never stopped...........got it all done and signed up for the next one and she has them all up to date too.............
anyway she has been trying to re motivate me and I think she gave up but today I sat down - cleared the dust off the machine and got 2 more blocks done...........
Block Eight - "Star Party"
Designed by Bonnie Olaveson
Block 4 - "Double Treats"
Designed by Bunny Hill Designs
I changed the centre block of this one...........it was supposed to be the brown with red spot but I thought it looked too dark.........the red tone on tone looked heaps better...............
3 more blocks to complete.......
Take Care til next time..............

Very nice blocks.
Gotta Love that Blue sky! Great blocks - red now that is a good choice.
Glad to see you back at the sewing machine...you might motivate me to get on with it too! Life just gets in the way of our obsession sometimes!! Have a great week, Cathyx
The blocks look great!! Good on you for getting some more made.
The block you changed looks great! and hey, you have to make the quilt YOURS!
I have been like you, struggling to get any sewing done, hoping ot have that change from next week - once shearing is over and done with. We have all the calves marked now and I have 80% of the MAJOR spring clean done. phew - big job that.
Love old gates....
oh, and great job on the skirts!
Your blocks are beautiful. Fairy Girl's skirt looks good too. Finally started my gifts for your SSCS today ... was starting to panic as the time is slipping away! Hope you find some more stitching time too.
