I have most of my applique pieces for part 6 done. I had started out the month on a roll and then became handicapped ;)...my husband started his vacation so the last two weeks I have not seen the inside of my sewing room :(. He goes back to work on Monday. Seriously we had a very good family vacation but I really am a routine oriented person.
So much eye candy of beautiful centres! I certainly want to keep my name on the list because I am a determined albeit slow soul.
Later
1st SAL.....Peg, Dale and I committed to stitching Anni Downs - A Gardener's Journal in March.
