Final Blocks & The Seal of Approval

Today I did the machine sewing on my final three blocks.



I was all so excited by finishing my blocks that I put them together too. The 12 blocks I left on the couch ready for the borders, hopefully on Sunday. You would think I sew with catnip flavoured thread, the speed that cats find my sewing in this house. At least this fun project now has the approval of my darling old Brutus cat. Where did I put that defluffing brush???



Happy stitching
Tracee xx
