Good morning!

I have four more NI blocks to show this morning. That means I only have 11 left to do and one of those is in the middle of construction. No celebrating yet though. At least one of the blocks that I have left to do will take hours....seriously....hours. Oh well, I can see the finish line, almost :o)

 

 

 

 

It looks like my part of the country is in for a huge (8" to 15") snowstorm. I'm fine with that as long as we don't get ice. If it really does snow that much I'll close the store and stay home and sew and cook. I'm pretty sure you know what I'm hoping will happen...lol

Have a great Wednesday everyone....

I really love the fussy cutting in your last 2 blocks and the toile in the 2nd block.
Gosh, the end is getting very close!!!

I hope you get to stay home and sew and cook too!

hope you don't get the ice that they right now we will get - would rather have the snow. The generator is getting put up on the porch today to be prepared, already have the firewood handy just in case!
Love the fussy cut center on that one block!

They're wonderful, Ranette. I can't wait to see them all together.

I wonder if the storm is progressing in a north easterly direction? I could use a snow day.

That much snow sounds terrible. That's why I live in California.
I'll be hoping with you, as long as none of that weather comes this way. Beautiful blocks.

More red & white blocks. Makes me think of Valentine's Day. Red & white quilts are good for any time of year, though. I am enjoying seeing all of your blocks.

I just love those last two with the fussy cut motifs in the center. Very clever. I'm hoping for a couple of days of uninterrupted sewing, too. If the electricity goes out, I have plenty of hand applique to keep me busy. Have fun.
