There's no place like home...

....for sheer volume of stitches! Wow, you girls were right...there was a lot of stitching in this house, but I am happy to report...

...it's all finished! I put the final stitches in this morning, and with that, Block C is complete.
Compared to the house, the dog house was a breeze :)


The flower wreath? A piece of cake!

All joined together...

This one was a catch-up block for me, since I didn't start A Gardeners Journal until July...woohooo, I'm getting there :)
I've pieced together and traced September's Block F all ready for stitching, and then have only Block A to do and I am up-to-date with Chookyblue's grand plan (and wouldn't I love that!!)
Here's to a sunny, stitchy weekend!
