This flannel quilt has been ready for quilting for a couple weeks so I finally quilted it yesterday. It will get trimmed today or tomorrow and then I'll look for binding.
I pressed the stratas yesterday and sliced off the segments for 8 blocks, 2 of each combination. They aren't pressed so they can't go up on the design wall yet. I have 72 blocks made now. That would give me an 8 x 9 layout but that is too close to square. I would rather have 7 x 11 or 8 x 10. I could still add in squares from one of Marcia Derse panels and maybe even make it 9 x 11 (72" x 88")
After I filled the bird feeders I took this photo of the buds on the Brown-eyed Susan plants. I am not very patient waiting for them to bloom. It seems they have had buds for a long time.
The tallest tomato plants are the Sungold. None of the tomatoes on them have ripened yet and the plants keep growing. I gave the tomato plants a dose of fertilizer yesterday. I hope it makes more tomatoes, not just more leaves.
I checked the cucumber plants that I gave to the neighbor girls and they have several blossoms on them. I can't wait to see the first cucumbers. I have 4 plants growing in the second pot and I'll probably keep it by my tomato plants.
