Only a few stitches

I was quite optimistic in the beginning of the month, but unfortunately it didn't go as planned. I'm sorry, but I realize that I can't finish the March blocks in time. Below you can see what has been done. Next week we'll have 6 visitors for a whole week, so no time for the hobby. I hope I'm caught up with March and April blocks at the end of next month.
                              There are so many beautiful blocks made!
                                            Have a great weekend!

It happens that way sometimes so when we have a spare minute, we should get to work on them before life gets in the way..that happened to me in February and I was glad I'd done some work early in the month.....I'm already working on April just in case.....have fun with your guests and then get busy.
