and a Drink ..........

Last block for a while ......... I promise  :o)
A little more progress on my Some Kind of Wonderful Quilt

(I think this almost takes me to the end of the February commitment so I really do need to slow down a little on this but I am having so much fun with it)



A little hard to see the writing in the photos, sorry


I love a hot chocolate in winter but not at the moment. Craving more of an iced coffee.

I have just one more thing I want to do and then I really do promise to stop for a while ..... I promise .... :o)
(Xmas, school holidays and the hot weather with no air conditioning will also slow me right down!)

happy stitching,
Sharon

Slow Down Sharon - you are putting us all to shame! Then again, some of us may be able to catch up over Christmas. (Just a bucket of ice for me please and the %@#*&^ air conditioning to work properly). Is it nearly winter???

Best to get ahead before The hot weather hits, your blocks are excellent,, at least you know Chooky won't be cracking the whip in your direction. I love the fact you are the tall poppy in this challenge...... : )
