Still Doing June!

 

 

Will I ever get caught up on my Block of the Months?!  I’m still doing June’s.  I’m currently working on M for Murder.  I have finished quite a few.

GlobetrottingJune

Globetrotting in June.  Don’t even remember where we went.  Australia, maybe.

 

And a new one.  Just what I needed!  Hope I don’t regret this.

SatSamplerJune 

The latest Saturday Sampler from Tiny Stitches.  This is the June block done in Kaffe fabrics. The other choices where red and the one my friends chose, blue and yellow.  I just had to be the odd ball.  There are four of us that go down together and then we stop off at Dunkin Donuts on the way home.  I missed our little outings.  We hadn’t gone in a year and a half.

We leave Thursday for New York to visit relatives and my husbands class reunion.  we are taking Lydia with us.  Hope she travels well.  Grandma is getting a little short on patience in her old age and she can be very stubborn.

How Time Flies!

 

I can’t believe it is July already and I’m still working on my June BOMs.  I haven’t even printed any of the July ones or received any in the mail yet.  Aarin, Jean, Nancy and I started a new Saturday Sampler at Tiny Stitches last month.  Will get this months on Saturday. Hope I can get caught up this month.  I still have one more customer quilt to get done soon.  Waiting on thread from Superior Thread to see if it will match better than the thread I have on hand. 

NeverEnoughChocolateSampleBlocks

Here are the fabric combinations I finally decided on for the “Never Enough Chocolate” blocks.  All of the blocks are made, just waiting on me to get around to putting the top together.

My Delightful Stars block from Lessons 13, 14, 15. Don’t remember if I posted these before or not.  I haven’t done any of the June blocks yet. Hopefully I can get caught up next week.

Flowers5

My Lilies bloomed this spring.  I used to have a lot more.  these are the only ones that were saved when we leveled out the front yard. I had a good sized garden, but it was a little over ambitious for me. I like flowers, but not so much gardening.

We are planning to take a trip to New York in a couple of weeks to visit my husbands family and to attend his high school class reunion. We will probably take our granddaughter with us.
