Trudging Along


I'm diligently working on my Pineapple Blocks. I have 14 completed and 2 more partially done. I plan on making 64 blocks total so the quilt will measure 80" X 80". I'm really enjoying this. The scraps are being used although there isn't even a little dent in my scrap bag.


I'm close to halfway through quilting Long Time Gone. It's taking awhile! I'm just taking my time and stitching along. This one is going to take awhile!

Quilting and sewing is wonderful therapy with everything going on around us. It really calms me to sew and figure out what quilting motif to use next. It's a nice escape.
