    I have been so tired, and had so much pain over the past few months that it was nearly impossible for me to even get out of bed. So yesterday I went for a massage, and then thrift store "window shopping", whatever LOL
    I picked up several pieces of fabric including some that I made valances for my tipout windows with. l then, since I was sewing, decided to get back to work on blocks I needed to get finsihed for a friendship quilt my friend and I are working on. I got six of them done last winter and lost steam. Well now I have 1 more done, and I want you guys to know I did this square in a square from memory without a pattern! The first one went really smooth, then I got hungry and ate and lost my brain power for several hours...Got em done finally though.

    No, just fussy cut, got this fabric at Walmart a few weeks ago. I wasn't too sure what I'd do with it and then today I thought this might be fun.

    Cute idea of how to use that butterfly fabric! Hope all this sewing has helped you to feel better-nothing like a little fabric therapy :D
