I am doing 2 per day for April....I find that each two take about
one to one and 1/2 hours-- between getting up to iron each seam and choosing from the leftovers...
[they are time consuming, but I only have one paper seam to rip off
as I fold the papers back before sewing, using the paper just to
measure each strip length...]
Right now I am trying to incorporate the "blues" leftover from Snowballs and
those mauves and/or purples from Stone Soup -- am trying not to
"dither about "too much in my choices...
AND
I want to use more of that yellow-blue mottled fabric that I hand dyed (in another lifetime--a Summer long ago when my daughter was into tie dying
in our backyard....fond memories of tee shirts and such)--
I think it lightens the whole shebang up a lot...
I haven't sewn these together as yet so I may be shuffling them about
(ya think? but that way may lead to utter madness...;000
what am I --crazee???).

I just finished and mailed out that secret project this morning--I had started it
in January but then the EYES happened--so was happy to get this one done
and mailed out...
I will post a picture (and, of course, a story--wordy moi!!)
once my friend receives it...
******'********************************
It's not June in January" here-- it's JANUARY in APRIL!!
Constant wind right off Long Island Sound; so C O L D!!!
I did my exercise inside on my recumbent bike this morning after our
foray to Big Y to pick up a few items...
Thom is making his sauce for
our supper tonight and we needed plum tomatoes..
I cooked yesterday,
so he's taken over that today..
and tomorrow we will have the leftover
chicken and rice...so two days with no thinking of a menu
or cooking for me...
so
more sewing time and reading and diamond painting...AND
speaking of THAT --
I can SEE to diamond paint once again...;)))
Here's: My Little Christmas Girl
She's bringing a basket of goodies to a neighbor for the holidays...;))))
So cute...
Hugs to you all
