Missed by ...... that much?

With 1 day to go in March I am conceding I am not going to get there.... but I am making progress and the plan is to be back on track by the end of April! Will just have to try and dodge that whip until then....



As you can see, I have completed all the blanket stitch borders but have some applique to go.
Am loving reading all your posts and seeing your blocks!

OOOh that whip is gonna hurt! Hope you find some time to yourself to stitch. Don't forget to slow down and take care of yourself. Life does get busy. Your blocks so far look wonderful. Love your pear!
