March Blocks...in March!



No whips for me this month....my blocks are done, and with a whole day to spare!



Things have been pretty hectic around here, and I must admit I was VERY late making a start on these. Some late night cutting and early morning stitching, and I was soon back on track....thank goodness I stuck with blanket stitch!

Now, to start on April before that month passes by in a blur ;)
