A little bit of sewing


For the amount of time I've been up and moving around today, all I've gotten done was a little bit of sewing done but I do like what I did. Robin brought these "Patchwork Party" blocks to retreat and I just fell in love with the Prairie Paisley fabrics...but I resisted. Once back from retreat Michelle emailed and said she'd signed up to do the club, but I still resisted....That was until the night I was leaving for the cruise and realized I'd be sorry if I didn't so I sat and went to all 12 shops and ordered my kits. This is the first one I did and it's called "Little Trip". Don't know if the names are traditional ones or just names Marti Mitchell made up for them. Now, the other 2 Musketeers got their finishing kits already, mine will be on it's way one day this week but ya know what's interesting? As much alike as the 3 of us are, none of us picked the same finishing kit. I am getting mine from Sunshine Carousel Quilt Shop. It looks like a wonky cabin like setting.
I think I'll go either cut the next block or maybe start something new?
