Where's the Proof

Yesterday I got quite a bit done again, but I can't show all I did. Have you heard the saying my life "The proof is in the pudding"?  Well I can't show you - so you'll have to take my word for it.

I was able to finish a gift for a friend - this is what I can't show until she gets it.  But I share a little tease.   She knows I'm making it but want the finished item to be a surprise.  :)

Next after I finished that - I started the quilting on one of the Charity Quilts.  I stitched in the ditch around the blocks then I did off set circles.  I did that on accident in the first square, I thought I was in the center and wasn't.  But it was a great look so I kept doing it.  I got 5 of the 9 squares done.

Then it was time for dinner.  After dinner I picked up my 3rd block from Bee-utiful QAL and went at some more stitching.  I got the grid on the sunflower done, then the rest of the stems for all the flowers, and the chain stitch on the tulip mostly done.  That was about it,  I was tired and succumbed to the head bob.  My honey woke me up a little later to go to bed.
  

Today I will continue on with the quilting on the charity quilt. I am hoping today will be my finishing day.  I want to finish the quilting. Then I want to finish the Bee-Utiful block. 

 Then I have the Farmhouse threads block I want to get on.  I have it prepped, just need to stitch it.

A new block comes out Friday so I better get at it also. 

Well I hope you have a Blessed day doing something you want to do.
