35 apples in one day plus a basket full!!

Could have caused real tummy trouble:-) Well,just talking of what you see here.
HURRAH my last block has been stitched,resting on the backing,waiting to
be sewn into block E..... And I have practiced (really tried to) backstiching
on the apples,preparing myself for my next new project!!!




Lovely Winter with untouched snow and a missing link soon on its way!!


I am sure you know what I`ll be busy with doing this weekend,
unless something more importent suddenly must turn up.

For me it has been super to have a "strict" plan to follow. Glad for
the planning,Chookyblue. Lovely to be seeing all the different
quilt tops comming up on our blog at the moment:-)

And I am so sorry for all the devastating things we see and hear
about on the TV from parts of your country, I too pray that Mother
Nature soon will calm down.
