Hello again!

Remember me? It's been a looonnnggg time, hasn't it?
Well, I can't even give a good excuse - just that time has been flying by and that it's been chock full of busy!
I actually did finish all of the blocks for Cass' quilt. I finished them within a day ot two of my last post.
There's a total of 45 blocks. I have some strips cut out of muslin for the sashing, but that's all the further I got.


So, the other day I pulled out the featherweight and put together three more blocks from the shop hop.




It's a little difficult to see the prints on the lighter fabrics.
And looking at them just now... there's a BIG mistake on the one block (lower).
Apparently, when making my flying geese, I neglected to pay atttention to which fabric to put on which corner. It doesn't become obvious until you put it together with the rest!
Here, let me show you a better picture...



See how the upper left and lower right blue squares are surrounded by paisley print triangles...
Oh, oops! there's the problem!
The flying geese on the left and right sides should have the light corners reversed.
Maybe some day when I feel like ripping all of that apart it will be fixed.
But until then, this is the way it will be!

Hopefully heading off to Aunt Linda's Saturday for a visit and a little sewing,
maybe a visit to her local quilt shop.
I'll try to remember my camera for future posting.

Bye for now!
