I got in a good session of yard work yesterday afternoon. I raked more leaves onto the lawn and chopped them with the mower. I emptied 5 pots but still have a couple more to do.
Last night I cut a few more squares to have 17 for the last row of border on the Gridlock quilt. I think this assortment will work but I can always cut a couple different ones if I need them. I also fixed the 36 patch block that I wasn't happy with. Now the serious sewing begins.
I'm still knitting dishcloths while I watch the evening news. This one started out with 2 small portions left from previous balls of yarn and then I added another yarn that went well with them.
Happy Thanksgiving to my US friends!!
I am down with carpal tunnel surgery (11-23), so had my yard guy blow all the leaves into fence lines so they can "rot" over the winter, (usually I rake them into black plastic bags and turn them through the winter-end up with compost in the spring) I love Gridlock. Have a Happy Thanksgiving
ReplyDeleteHappy Thanksgiving to you! I think all the yard work is done except bringing in the fish. Hasn't been as warm here. Enjoy the day!
ReplyDeleteI keep petting my stack of waiting MD fabrics every time I go past them - your cut squares today look SO good together! Happy Thanksgiving, Wanda!
ReplyDeleteHappy Thanksgiving, Wanda! Grateful that I follow your blog so I can see all your lovely work!
ReplyDeleteYour border squares are a nice choice and blend well together. Hope you had a good Thanksgiving Day - I could just eat a bit of turkey :)
