    Number one on my list is done. I have the top done for the second item on my list. Time to go outside and scrape some ice from the driveway before the next snow arrives.

    I am still sitting on the fence as to whether I will do an ES or not. I sort of like the design, just dont like the fabric choices...I want to replace that busy black/white with something else. It drives my eyes crazy on the ones I have seen so far What did you choose for colors? I saw one that someone did with more tone on tone creamy colors to replace the black/white and that was very pretty.

    Good luck!

    I got frustrated with the pp I am working on, so I am going thru my Farmers Wife CD to choose the blocks for my piece "The Farmers Daughter" I think some of the blocks are just plain yuck and some of the pp instructions for doing them even stranger! LOL

    Well, #1 on my list for the day is completed. As always, it took longer than I had anticipated, but the top is complete (except for pressing!) and can go to the long armers on Tuesday. The photo was taken in my driveway -- the sun was so bright and pretty. I didn't realize the wind was slightly blowing -- hence the shoes to hold the corners down. Hope it posts.

    Don't know what I'm doing wrong -- keep getting the message that upload failed. I'll keep working on it ...

    Hi Everybody,

    I have projects planned, I just can't get going on any of them. Mostly they are applique projects. After spending all day yesterday getting things out and putting them away again, I knew I didn't want to do that today. I also spent a lot of time on the Internet looking for projects and patterns. So I decided to spend a few hours cutting scraps into blocks, today. I cut them into the biggest blocks I could fit out of each scrap. Then I put them into zip bags and labeled them according to size. I love to organize my things so that worked out well and I feel happy that when I am ready to use them the fabric will be ready for me. I hope everyone is having a great day.
