SORRY, KERMIT, ET AL

                                                 Too Too green,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
                           [apologies to my friend Kermit, the Frog]
                                               
                       All you see is KAPOW--πŸ‘€πŸ‘½πŸ‘ΎπŸ˜
                                                 green green green....
                                                       6 rows of it--
                                                          down down down...

                                      So now what?  

                 Not crazy about these either....gold and pale blue.....

Perhaps these strips should be divider rows themselves in between 
bigger blocks of some sort? 

                                  I just cannot figure this one out...
so,  it will sit on my "time out"  wall and see what happens...

                                    πŸ’ Hello, quilt Fairy???πŸ‘Έ

maybe she will come and
figure out a solution for me.....
                                              or not ;(((((
*********************
In the meantime, in between time, I am making great progress
on Swiss Crosses:↓↓↓↓ My happy place quilt;))))

I am so enjoying this slow quilting process...
               I am just quilting on the white fabrics and
                      leaving the burgundy to stand out....
                              One and one-half more triangles to finish...

I rarely use white in my quilts--but this piece has really changed
my thinking...I love how the hand quilting looks on the 
white/off white fabrics...πŸ’—πŸ’

[This project is from  Lori at (click) Humble quilts...thank youπŸ‘]
*****************************************************
And that is where I am in this interim between Christmas and
New Year celebrations....

and this is FRIDAY? RIGHT?
Mid week holidays always get me bamboozled as to what day
it really is!! 
Uh.............. have I said that before????? hahahaha
********************************************* 
We are having leftover meatloaf tonight --sandwiches and fries--
easy dinner--
then... I am soaking some Navy beans and de-frosting
a small piece of ham for my Senate Bean soup which I will be making
tomorrow...we just love soup around here...

Quiet days..........thankfully...;))))
