a blogger's anniversary

Averett Lady Nana just sent me over to Blue Waters who is celebrating her first year anniversary as a blogger....certainly worth visiting...it's a nice site

off to the Y then my goals are 1to finish my Lovely Little Lassies top (just needs the border)
2 put a binding on a quilt that I picked up at the quilter's last Friday
3 wrap my secret sister gift for Monday
4 pack for Tuesday's trip to Lancaster
5 clean up my quilting room (It's a mess)
6 pay bills....UGHHH
7 grocery shop

maybe I'm overly ambitious today.

October already!

I've been doing a little applique...not my strongest talent...but I love the "Sunbonnet Sue" blocks so I am making these to use up many of my scraps. I decided to make each one a little different...for a very special reason...I believe every young girl should be herself...not worry about the latest fads, etc. but be a strong individual....so you may notice that some of the "outfits" might have parts that may clash...thier feet aren't exactly in the same positions (they are marching to different drummers)...etc. It has been fun to choose the fabric and body positions.

I haven't quite decided how I will put the blocks together for a final project. Each block will have a finished size of 9". I probably won't get to work on them much this weekend because we are having company but I am amazed at how quick they are to do.
