RSC13--BACK IN BUSINESS AT LAST


Here is the latest addition to what will be the reverse of Beach Huts--I am using almost all teal/aqua/turquoise blues in keeping with RSC13's July color choices...

I chose this fabulously funky moon/sky print to offset the darkening sunset block...

Am thinking there are so many busy prints that my borders may be just a plain light blue...still working on that. 

 FIONA UPDATE:

 Here's what "Daddy" and Fiona did at our house last  Sunday...

She is totally entranced with my piano...yay!! Her favorite was "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star"---played maybe a ga-zillion times (hahahaha)...

 I am working also on Bonnie Hunter's scrappy scraps foundation piecing rectangles...

you sew four of them together into blocks--these are all leftovers and I am having so much fun--totally mindless sewing--
As you can see, I have been sewing away even though my old computer was on its last legs...Today I am posting on my brand new (Windows 8) computer which is wonderful.  Yesterday, DH helped me to set it up.  (What a guy)




I wish you all a wonderful weekend,
Julierose, La Blageuse

    Yummy looking beach hut back. That's a lot of hourglass blocks. Oh, and I like mindless sewing too. It's a great way to use up scraps and make something useful.
