and thats not all



hmm...I think I reached a post length limt or something? It wouldn't let me add more to my loooong update post.

Well, lets see if I can remember the rest without forgetting anything or losing my place:

*I have been working on my 150 4 patches for Bonnie's Orange Crush Mystery Quilt

*I made a house block (finally) to send to Bonnie.

*With inspiration from Tonya, Gwen and Freddy, I made my first two wonky baskets. I am anxious to get to making more of these soon.

*I have been trimming some scraps into specific size pieces that I will need for the project 'kits' I will be bringing to the retreat NEXT WEEKEND (woo hoo!!!!).

In the midst of all that, I somehow screwed up something with the sewing machine that I use at the cabin. I can see thread wrapped around the inside parts of the thingy-ma-bobber in there, but can't get rid of it with my little tweezers, so I have taken the machine to the repair man for a little TLC.

And I have completed one more project, which I will show you all tomorrow, after it comes out of the washing machine. It is an old UFO that I am happy to have completed, and it will be landing at it's new home right away.

You seem to have been very busy! I do like your little house block; I haven't made any myself, but am planning a wall hanging made out of different types of house blocks. Can't wait to get down to it.

Oh, so cute! And FUN. Love your fabric choices for the house!

I don't know what's up with blogger, but I don't think you came close to a post length, if there is one. I've had a good bit of trouble recently with odd messages when I try to load photos.
