It's weird how February is only a couple days shorter than the other months, but it seems like it flies by.
We had another two-day sew in Lake Havasu city. This month's theme was paper piecing. This is the pattern:
I am making with green and cream scraps. This is part of my friend Cheryl's... She ended up putting a log cabin border on. I just have a few blocks made.
I got Dept Supervisor of the month at work....
And celebrated my 5-year anniversary with Home Depot.......
Our new great granddaughter is due at the end of March, so I started her baby quilt. They are leaning towards naming her Daisy and when I asked my granddaughter said to make something with daisies. So, here's the top I need to sandwich and quilt.
And I did my February Machine Embroidery blocks for the Kimberbell Mystery BOM.
I have an embroidery retreat at the first of April (my first) and I think I'll work on "Hopping Down the Bunny Trail" by Kimberbell.
I have been cutting all the fabric pieces for all the blocks and prepping them. I am new to the embroidery machine, so I've been practicing and prepping stuff, I don't want to go and act like a dummy. Each piece of fabric is cut and starched and has the Fusible on the back. This pattern is for a bench pillow. However, I think I'll make it as a wall hanging, with two big dogs that get on the couches I don't want them near it. :)
Other than working, cooking and hand stitching with my friends on Saturday mornings that pretty well sums up my month.
Hope you had a good February too.
Blessings, Lynn
