I would love for you to join me (a retired senior)in my zany crafting adventures with quilting (waaaaay too much fabric); scrapbooking (will I ever catch up?); redwork; counted cross stitch; crossword puzzles; reading; and cooking.

SUNDAY'S "SLEIGHT OF HAND" (or is it a foot?)

 
Some of my big stash of charms
did a 
"Presto-Change-o"
into these
I've never made "Disappearing
Four Patch" blocks before....
and have discovered that
I like the process...
I have a stack of 20 to 
sew a bit at a time...

The top one above was my first try
and I used a different method 
to the bottom two..
I prefer the easier for me 
bottom "switcheroo-ing"
:)))
**********************
I still have a big pile of 
to be sewn on either side
to also make. 
So, I will have two 
different types of blocks
to work on just using my
charms...
💙😉💜

this late morning we went for a 
Walk on the boardwalk on
the Connecticut River;
it was VERY windy, but
beautiful all the same.

Unfortunately, (sigh),
I tripped and my bad leg
(the sciatic one)
gave way and I landed
on that knee and hand...

I wrenched everything!!!
😓😨😰😭
I am resting now and hoping
that it won't set me back
from walking too long...

Tom looked where it happened and
there was a big hole 
that was hidden by the 
long grass.  

*********************
Earlier this morning I made us
 minnestrone soup for supper.
So I won't have to stand
and cook tonight--
a good thing, right??
I hope you can get outside and 
enjoy this lovely day...

Hugs, Julierose
