While waiting to hear from Jody about her suggestion for the applique heart for Hostess with Heart, I decided to tackle my Hopscotch blocks. I left off having completed all the blocks and just starting playing around with cutting sashing ((April 10th post). Pictured, the final quilt center is pieced and awaits border treatments. I haven't even thought that far ahead yet, so I'll have to look around to see what fabrics I have and whether I'll use a pieced border.
Since that was finished, I still needed something more to play around with, so I figured I'd at least prep the borders for Hostess with Heart so that I can jump to it tomorrow after hearing from Jody. I didn't want to put a quilt on the frame since I hope to have Hostess reading for quilting tomorrow.Throughout all this activity, I've managed a few loads of clothes, some lunch, dishes, and watering the garden. My GOSH!!!! It's HOT HOT HOT out there! I absolutely FEEL for Paul today having to work out in this heat and humidity! UGH UGH!!! Cassie has a softball game tonight at 5:15, and although the sun won't be at its highest, it'll STILL be blasted HOT out there!
Oh, AND....Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! Blogger isn't sending comments to my email again! Rotten luck! Here I had thought that all my followers had left me after such a dry-blogging-spell ;0)........ but.....nope! You've commented! I just wasn't seeing them in email.
I remember that quilt. Love the brown sashing. Glad you have found the summer stride. Some of us are still plugging away at our FIRST quilts of the day.

ReplyDeleteRe: blogger...I had to reset my preferences...go to "settings", click on "comments", scroll to the bottom and where it says "comment notification email" you have to re-enter your email address. Hope this helps.
what size are the squares in the hop scotch quilt? I have TON of 2 1/2" squares and that looks like it might be a good use for them, when I get around to it.
