I LIKE NO. 22

                                          I like: this basket block that I am setting up...
                                               My 1st layered applique project...

I had ordered a kit from Jan Patek a few years ago and have never used it; well now is
the time.....
I am also (Gulp! Gasp!) going to give needle turn another go...
I have been  making cardboard templates and using the starch method
to prep my pieces up til now...

Fingers crossed--oh, wait, Noooo------ not a good idea lol

***************************************************
                                       Love this chunky cross block from Auntie Em's site....
especially that she
used her die cutter to prep all the pieces.....

***********************************************************
And I really love this SAL that Lori of " Humble Quilts" plans to do in 2020...
but it looks
difficult.. we'll see.....

**************************************************
As you can tell from the above photos, I've been surfing mostly and not doing a whole lot else:
BUT
I do like that:
Today, I actually went OUT and did a few errands, so I am feeling better....(knock on wood).
***************************************************
AND
I like that I actually remembered [hahaha] to
take our  turkey out of the freezer and put it in fridge to thaw....

And finally:
 I LIKE that all my hand quilting on Autumn Dresden is D O N E :

Now just a couple machine quilted straight ones on the side borders
and then she can be
bound....;)))

Thanks Lee Anna for hosting these  "I like posts"

...they certainly perk us up in these difficult times....
