March Done! April Underway!

I finished March today.  Yay!  Outlines for stitching for April is done and I'm about to start the blanket stitching.  Happy dance time.

Since starting to write this and arguing with my iPad to get this photo loaded I have completed all the stitching outlines for April.  And watched "100 Foot Journey" - a very pleasant movie!

Hoping with a bit of down time for Mothers Day that April blocks may be completed this weekend.  BoM package for May should arrive any day now!

Hi Marg! Funny you should say that.... I have that movie 100 Foot Journey to watch this week, my friend lent it to me, she liked it.
Your blocks look beautiful, well done. I am sitting here doing blanket stitch circles!

Love that movie...the 100 Foot Journey and now the sequel is out too. Cant wait to find some time to actually sit in one spot long enough to watch it. Your blocks look lovely.
