Just when you think it's safe...

to come out of the water, as the old saying goes...oh no!! It changes! Same thing seems to happen with quilts. I thought I was DONE with this orphan block top, but apparently not. Yesterday, while cutting scraps into usable sizes, I found 4 MORE of blue checked center block beginnings! AND, since there was ONE blocks left from the original batch of 26, I now have enough to add one more row to the top. It's about 50" square at the moment, and I wouldn't mind it being one row longer...so I've begun adding the "go-rounds" to those blue centers, LOL, yup, just when you think you're done! Happy stitching everyone XXX

Ha, those fabrics never seem to get gone, do they? I have some in my scrap bag that have been there since Noah's Ark!

Isn't that the way things go? I looked and looked for this special thread I bought for quilting a certain quilt. I found the bobbins but not the cone. Why weren't they together? I started quilting it in another thread and, you guessed it, I found the original thread. No, I didn't rip out. I just continued.

So great to see you posting again, Finn. Hope you're feeling lots better also. You're going to have a pretty quilt when it's finished!

Hello Finn, I just arrived here whilst blog-hopping (you know how that goes!).
I enjoyed reading your back posts and seeing what you make. I think we are rather kindred spirits, with our scrappy quilts.
I often think it is a shame my blog friends don't all live in my town, what great visits we would have!
