good thing, I have a rather limited vocabulary of blocks to chose from. I did buy a book and have become familiar with a few of the suggested websites with block collections. Bye bye comfort zone....here we go!

oh no! What a complete drag to now have to wait longer to start, it’s important for you to get started ASAP!

The cut out parts for the octos (big triangles) and the hexies

I now have all the half hexies sewn, but need to get them pressed and everything on the design wall for hexie layout. I already know the layout of the octos.
looks beautiful and complicated!


I won a ticket to a sewing retreat for this weekend so will be leaving Thursday morning , well Wednesday night is more like it, with a 6:30 am flight that leaves from an airport 2 1/2 hours away. Right after squishy is scheduled to get here on wed. I’m tempted to take a few with me to work on in between the retreat projects, might be a nice Gear shift from a cathedral window and bag making.
