slowly catching up...

Yes I know, you are probably wondering who I am.  I think this is my first post since sometime before Christmas.  I was nearly going to give up but then a dear friend of mine, Susan, gave me a little encouragement so I am soldiering on.



Its school holidays now so I am hoping to get a bit more done.
love me :-)

In the beginning, I felt the same way...having done little applique and all of that just stitching the edges on the machine but I persevered and look where we are now.....I love your blocks...keep it up.
