Yes -- Yes! July block is here:



Hello again all of you,

Well,I`m back :-) Proud to show you my block H. Have had a long,nice summer-holiday, did not see that much of the sun though,but still..... Stitching while the rain poured down was great!! Glad I have this hobby,that`s for sure. Our holiday went far too quickly but so nice to be among lots of family and friends. We rented a cottage down south of Oslo. Same place for the 5.year! I brought with me lots of different stitching projects. And I am really on schedule with the a Gardeners Journal. Have finished the stitchery on block D, it is soon to be sewn together.

The net was very unstable at the cottage where we stayed,but I have been reading all the posts. Thanks Chookoblue for inspiring us to keep on:)) Happy Stitching !!
