Updating! I have 60 of my biscuit blocks done. My goal was 50! I'm going to keep on to see if I can finish the last 40 before it is time to go get the dogs' pictures taken! I had to stop for a bit as had to shear the sheep (meaning had to use the furminator on our 2 large furry dogs) and had to bathe our Pom. Everybody is looking good and ready to get their picture taken about 6 pm tonite!

Well, I have the 3rd braid done. Came downstairs to get refill of CL. Got sidetracked on puter, hadn't done the jigsaw puzzle yet, so I did that. Headed upstairs to start on #4 braid.

Making progress slowly. I have too many other things that I need to get done today and I keep wandering away from my sewing. But I do have all of the HSTs squared up so they can be sewn into blocks. Thought I would never get that done - there are 280 of them. I have 21 blocks sewn together and 4 rows sewn (of 7) so I am more than halfway. I won't be happy unless I finish the top and I am not sure that's going to happen today. lol

I am impressed at how much some of you are getting done.

Back to the sewing machine...

I am here. I had company from out of state last night/ this morning so it's taken me awhile to decide if I had the energy today. And I do..
I saw a post on the board last week about how swoon blocks were all the rage. Did my research, drew out the pattern, picked the fabrics and cut them out. I am now sewing them together and you WILL see the block completed tonight. When I participated in May I wanted to machine piece the curves of my Wedding Ring mini. Trust me - it didn't work. So I have been hand piecing and should be able to get the third row on this evening - after the swoon block.
Then I will post pictures.
I hope you all are making the best of a wonderful quilting day!
