Back in the Groove

Last night I finished stitching this little Home Sweet Home stitchery designed by Lynette Anderson. Sarah and I purchased this pattern at Evandale in July and decided we would bring it along finished to the Quilted Crows gathering at Campania on September 20th. The pattern included a lovely house button which will go in the space under the tree. I am planning to add some borders and get it finished today. We'll see!



This is the first completed block for my Truly Scrumptious quilt. I am getting used to the flowery fabrics and ....



Oliver appears to approve. Just noticed how well the outer border matches his ginger coat. No wonder he's impressed!



It is nice to be back in blogland. Thanks to everyone who has been dropping by.
