Oh bother!!!

I have 3 yards of black which isn't going to be enough, and blacks aren't all the same so looks like I'll have to buy more so I get it all from the one batch, thanks for your help Deecee

Woody, I bought my black in several trips to the store. They aren't all from the same dye-lot, but it looks just fine!

Week #33

It's already Week #33. This week's block is #3. This one is a bit of a challenge as it has 8 scrolls with really pointy tips. There are also four "flowers" in the corners & a 3-layer circle in the center! It's a very pretty block, once you've finished it! Here is a picture of my #3. Am finally quilting my AOTH. So far, I have completed 18 blocks & the first inner shark tooth border. I'm taking a break from quilting, so I thought I'd get this posted for you all.

Happy Stitching!

Your blocks and your quilt are beautiful, Kathy. I hope to get block #3 cut out and ready to take on our camping trip this week. I can get a lot of sewing accomplished when we camp because we don't have MD appts., dogs to take care of, yard work, telephone, etc. It is so relaxing to go to a state park and just enjoy nature. We have so many beautiful parks here in FL.

Beautiful, Kathy.
And now I am officially behind, lol. I need to finish a few small almost done projects before I get back to my AOTH so I can give it my full attention, hopefully by the end of the month.
