A long day of sewing and unsewing and sewing...Bibliostone - first let me tell you about your gray (or is it grey??) Didn't have any light gray or silver. I had gotten this beautiful mottled medium grey wide backing for a previous quilt so had leftovers. Took a strip and put it outside in a pail with bleach. Nothing happened. All day!! Went to Quilt store and got me some light gray/silver!! No problem!! Decided on the Lone Starburst for your fabric and love how the lite gray brings it out.
Moonrise - when I saw your fabric I knew I had to do curves. Found the pattern - Scadi Windmill - and revised it for your spoked circle . It is a circle!! Took me four tries just to get the color right. Have two blocks cut out for handsewing. Fishing around for other patterns! |

Sat out and sewed simple straight lines, hard to concentrate and swat at flies

Thank you NanaKathy - I see my leaves falling. So glad I don't have to rake them up

TG, if dh was here we would have put up screen tent but really need two of us . Only 2 campers after us and usually only 1 or 2 other people here in the entire campground during the week. Sometimes I go 2 or 3 days without seeing anyone
