Five days late, not that bad!!!

Finally finished Block D.  August was a very slow month for stitching and it feels like it took forever to stitch these two stitcheries.  Here it is.


And then I looked at the block setting and put two blocks together. 

It's so exciting to be able to put a couple blocks together.  I have the stitcheries traced and off to stitch for the next block!  Happy stitching to all!!!

Well done Lori, it's so motivating when you can start to put blocks together that I bet your next one is done in no time.
