Home Sweet home finished...pheeewww!




I am thrilled to have this block 'Home Sweet Home' and its partners, 
Doghouse and wreath finally finished...
I am on a huge roll stitching away after having 3 weeks
 of no stitching...I along with DH have landscaped our front and back garden and 
it now looks fabulous, so this House block is very apt for me,
shrubs and all now looking pretty..he he
 Now to finish the vege patch and its partner,
wonder if I can get it done by tomorrow...
 and have it finished...we'll see
OH Please Please Chookyblue let me stay in this stitch along.... 
I would have nothing done otherwise...I need this
 and this blog as it pushes me to FINISh things...LOL
 Hugs.... Dawn x x x

That hiouse certainly has a LOT of work in it - and a little tedious to do I think!! Hang in there.
