Apple, Acid, and Lime

How are your green scraps stacking up?  At first gander, I didn’t pull much from my scrap boxes, but since I’m also cutting into my beloved and hoarded hand dyed fabrics, the piles are growing.  Green definitely needs two months in my books, as there are so many hues and shades for me to tackle.

Looking into the month ahead, I’m a little nervous that the scraps won’t get sewn up by month’s end. Next week is full of appointments, and two weeks later is spring break.  I also have two quilts to finish as well as clothing for the Assistant, who is in need of skirts and shorts.  First up is the Tshirt quilt, and then I’ll do the Stained Glass Stars, I think.  We’ll see how this weekend goes since we have even more non-stitching craziness to manage: selling a car, buying a truck, dismantling a decrepit shed and purchasing a new (and larger) shed.

Whew!  I need to go bury my head in some fabric.  (Ooh, and I did find a new project, which will be my reward if I survive the next two weeks!)

(Be sure to see what green goodness there is to see this weekend.)

Spring sounds like it will be busy, but hopefully there will still be some time to dig into some fabulous hand dyes.

Hope you get some scrap therapy time this week, Katie!

You've got some very bright and luminous greens to play with this month. March is going to be crazy for many it seems. Hope you do find a few minutes here and there to play in your sewing space.

The greens in your basket are beautiful; I wouldn't want to cut into them either! But that's what they're for, right? I hope you find some precious sewing moments this week.

No matter how busy you are, it seems that you always find time for some stitching! Looking forward to seeing what you do in stolen moments during the coming weeks. Best of luck with ticking items off your To Do list!!

Hope you find some time for your green scraps. Yes green is a big colour 2 months for sure.

August Block Count

 I thought I wrote this, but it seems to be lost somewhere or I never wrote it at all… August was a quiet block month, with only 42 16-patch...
