I have been working on trying to catch up on my Calico Cut-Ups BOM . I am threatening to turn it into a six or nine month quilt. Some of the instructions are not real clear and some of the blocks are a wee bit daunting. I am also about to run out of one of the colors I am using, so that may sway my decision even more. We shall see--here is what I have done so far:
I also started to quilt my carolers wallhanging. UGH!!! I just got through unpicking all that I did. With all the little seams, it is very hard to do a nice smooth curve. I am thinking I may have to break down and see if I can do a little hand quilting. OH DEAR!!! And can I finish by the end of the month if I do. Maybe a combination. We shall see.
I also started another project--YES I AM CRAZY!!!! Well, I went to the grocery store and I saw some really yummy looking cherries--BUT--they were $30 a kilogram (2.2 pounds)--SO--I left them there. Then I came home and made this pie instead:
It will last a lot longer and won't stick to my hips, so it is probably a better pie to make anyway. I am going to make a few more different varieties and then decide what they will become.
So hopefully I have done enough boo boos and finished unpicking for the rest of the week (hee hee hee hee) and I will be able to get something accomplished!!!!!!
And Joy is back from vacation!!!! Yay!!! Well, I am glad anyway--she may still want to be on vacation. Instant whine feedback is very helpful when you are making boo boos. So it is going to be a great week!!!
For everyone out there!!! Have a good one, A-
