It's time for I Like Thursday! The holidays are officially over. It's so much work to prepare and yet the holidays go by so fast. Our tree is down but not before Molly found a gift she liked to snuggle with and take a nap! Too bad it's a shirt a friend bought for me and it's now covered with fur. Oh, well!!
My daughter received the nicest gift from her boyfriend's uncle at their family swap. He's a restorative carpenter who works with leather as a hobby. He made her the most beautiful pocketbook. It's one of a kind and all hand made. It's such a treasure!
Month 1 is complete for The Quilt Show's Laurel Ridge Block of the Month. They measure 5.5" square. It sounds like we have many more of these to make. I think they're taking it easy on us during the first month.
My second block of the month starts tomorrow but they gave us a freebie for signing up early. It's an 18" X 18" table topper. I'm using it as practice for when the BOM really starts. I have 5 blocks to go for the table topper. They measure 6.5" square. This is so fun and mindless once you start thinking in paper piecing mode.
That's my week. It was busy but I also tried to find time to sew. I'm linking up with LeeAnna over at Not Afraid of Color. Have a great first weekend of 2025!!
