Thank you ladies i am going to leave as it is and start sewing the rows except for the mistake :) in 4th row and 6th all fix up.
Have a great day to you all |
So you know how we fly by the seat of our pants here. Well, I finished all the pinwheels and got them all sewed together ready for sashing and border. Guess what I found out today! Her bed is a full sized not a queen. So she is getting a queen size anyway. It'll just be big. And I started on some smaller pinwheels for a QFK quilt. I'll post either later or tomorrow. I am tired. My DGS was here for the afternoon, early dismissal from school. He needed a bag to hang from his belt for some target playing game he and his friends play, not paint ball. So we got that made; of course my 25 year old snap tool broke on the 2nd snap so I had to improvise. Then we took the dogs out to play. Gus went nuts, and almost broke Heidi's leg on the leash. I am ready for a bubble bath and bed. No more pinwheels tonight.

I hope you slept well. You sounded exhausted but what fun having the grandson with you. |

I'll post a picture when I get a couple more blocks finished.
