Two new blocks.................


I got 8 more blocks cut and 4 of them are sewn.  Here is one of each of the new ones.





10 of the 20 sewn blocks with the duplicate blocks in a pile on my sewing cabinet.






Here are the combinations for the next 2 blocks.  I thought I might get more sewn but I did some gardening instead.  I cut off lower leaves on the tomato plants and some dead leaves on the cucumber plants.  Then I put some fertilizer spikes around the plants.  Last I turned on the hose and gave them all a good drink.  I also cleaned out the cement birdbath and filled it and filled the bird feeders.  It was more comfortable outside yesterday although still a little humid early in the day.

these blocks are coming together so beautifully, Wanda--I love the brown/gold/tan tones...such welcoming combos...very calming...
I did get four placemats ready to be pin basted.
DH got home yesterday and is doing really well...now to change our eating plans to low fiber--that will be a challenge!!
61 here and sunny--nice and coolish this morning--hoping we can relax out on the deck a little later on...
Hugs, Julierose

Just when I think there can not be another fabric combination for your Snails Trail ~ here they are today… your stash always amazes me. Your browns and golds are perfection.

I love all those brown colors they are so pretty. It is not as warm here as it had been but still so humid! I used to force myself to work out side in the summer to keep up with things I just don't anymore - I don't want to keel over and faint from the humidity!

After all the rain we had this spring, I knew we would reach h a point when the rain stopped. We've only on a little over an inch in the last three weeks and none since the 6th. And it's been hotter than normal, so things are looking a little wilted around here. Your Snail's trails are coming along nicely. I haven't made one of those yet.
