Projects in the Works


It's a super hot day up here. I think we reached 95 degrees. This is only day one of a heat wave. I did go out this morning but stayed inside all afternoon enjoying my air conditioning. I managed to finish the owl ornament. I even used bugle beads to embellish the wintry scene. I love how the snowflakes look so lacy!


I now have 2 rows made for Oopsie Daisy. I was going to sew them together today but I just didn't feel like it. I figured I'd get hot so I'm hoping to sew them together tomorrow. Maybe!



 I cut the last 4 blocks for Alaska. These last blocks will be the corners in the border. I used Edyta Sitar's photo to figure out what to cut. I'm hoping the fabrics are set up correctly to continue the border around each corner. I have plenty of fabric left if I've made an error but I hope I didn't!

It's time to think about dinner but I'm not very hungry. I guess that's one good thing about the heat. Maybe I'll lose some weight!!

  2. Your owl ornament is super cute. I love that you added beads to it. They really look like berries. Your Oopsie Daisy is growing and looking great.

    1. Thanks so much, Jeanna! Those ornament are addicting. I'm on my third one. I'm so glad I can stay home today. It's so hot outside and the air is so thick. Indoors is much better!
