Yikes! I have been neglecting my blog recently... Between summer activities, participating in my first round robin, spending time with my family and trying to complete some projects around the house, I suppose that is understandable. I need to update my goals, but posting about crazy quilting is so much more fun!
I must confess, I have not made much progress on my January block. However, I did finally stitch the scarf-letters on to spell out the name of the month. (The R and Y required so much twisting and such that I actually whip-stitched the two raw edges in the back together; a step I did not find necessary for the other letters. It took a while, but I finally manipulated them into shape.)
Next, I need to decide, do I add the snowmen, or leave them as scarves? Once I decide that, I will be able to start adding the tassels onto the ends of the scarves. If I do not add snowmen, I need to figure out how to cross the A's. Hmmm.... tricky, tricky. I am most tempted to switch to another section of the block so I can mull that one over.
And, I have another confession. I failed at my resolution not to begin another project until I finished two UFOs. But I have a great excuse! (Don't I always? Hmmm...) I have been working on a couple of birthday gifts. Once they the recipients have received them, I will post pictures.
Have a wonderful day, and thank you for stopping by!
