March By 1 Day

One more block stitched while tending my parents garage sale on Saturday and the last 2 blocks done last night while watching the Aussie cricketers run it home. A press and a trim today and here are my blocks for March.



I'm a lot happier with my needle turn this month but there's still room for improvement.  Loving all the different colour combinations everyone has. Now to bind my grandson's quilt before starting April blocks.
