A little progress...

Today I thought I had best start cutting up the hundreds of little 2" squares for the borders on Nature's Journey. Can't believe the top is due to be finished at the end of this month! Well done those who have already finished.

Thanks for posting your progress. I just finished sewing those together. So happy, not to be the only one that is going slow.

those little piles look nice but now for getting them together. They will look fabulous! It will go quickly...a glass of wine or a cuppa...and away you go. Looking forward to seeing your finished NJ.
