I'm Still Here!!

Just thought I'd better pop along and say I'm still here and still stitching - though I must admit that when I finished my June blocks in mid-June.... instead of starting July I did take a "couple of weeks off" ... like a "holiday" and now I'm feeling a bit behind!! But this is where I'm at now .... 
will try and finish by the end of the month!! ....but the 31st is looming so I'd better get a move along - no more "holidays"

Love seeing everyone's finished July centre block - you are all very inspiring!

Happy Stitching
Asta

We love progress shots as well as finishes - keep going Asta you have broken the back of it...I think.

Never fear, Asta. I made my first applique stitches today but managed to do the stems and cut out the pieces for the left stem. Come on, I think we can make it.
