OFW, Nice Mail and a Finish.

Can’t believe it is Wednesday again. In between my other things in my life I still managed to sit and stitch THREE Flowers.

Thanks to Karen that I keep making my flowers. You can pop over to One Flower Wednesday and see what the other ladies have made this week.

I believe Santa must have been extremely busy this year because look at the goodies I got in the mail yesterday.

From Linda             009

                                                          and Val.
All the gifts are lovely and very much appreciated. Thank you ladies.

Also my “Jelly Roll “ book arrived. Can’t start a new project yet. Sad smile

Every chance I’ve had over the past few days I have been working on the Log Cabin Border for my Round Robin. After much reverse sewing I finally sewed the border on and I can’t believe it is still wrong. GRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!! more unpicking.

  1. Love you header pic Maria! I have a new jelly roll book,too and am dying to start something from it, but also have other things that need done first. :/ I think I see what happened in your round robin, but wouldn't have noticed unless you mentioned it! It is beautiful! What great gifts, to give and receive.. you have been busy. :o)

  6. Your flowers look lovely hanging in the garden. I'm like Janet. I can't see the mistake (maybe I'm just too tired from sitting up late sewing again last night!).

  13. O Maria! What beautiful projects you are working on.Wish I was close -I would "pick out" for you -so you could tackle it again. You make me feel so much better! Now, you know why I am good at Something - because I do so much PICKING! LOL

    Your placemats are beautiful with the border on them. Amazing what something so little can make such a transformation .Sometimes it seems that the smallest thing is like the icing on the cake

  15. Hello Maria,

    Love your little flowers, so happy in the garden. Sorry I looked and looked and didn't know what I was looking for!!!

  16. Your flowers are so lovely hanging on the line!! Gives me an idea for my wall in my cave! Despite your reverse sewing - and error - (I couldn't pick it --was it to do with the orientation of the lights in the LC blocks?)- your SAHR is looking really good. Love all your gifties and that new book will be really inspiring, I'm sure.
