Happy first day of June, my friends! Where does the time go?
Before getting into the
quilt update, I want to mention a Blogger issue I’ve been having. Sweet Linda
at Linda’s Relaxing Lair wrote a post about it a while ago
but I couldn’t find it to link.
Posts do not appear in the
Reading List right away. I have missed so many of my friends’ posts because they
are either delayed or are not showing up at all in the list. Linda did mention that if you
have a blog roll on your page, then that updates immediately. I must figure out
how to add that to my blog, when I have time. I’ve noticed I have had a
reduction in views, so I suspect my posts are not showing up either.
Now, for what you came
here for…
The first block I finished
on Friday was Sewcialites 3 block 15.
Split Star Block by Lissa
Alexander. I amazed myself when my
directional fabrics came out correctly.
Fat Quarter Shop released the Fat Quarters by the Dozen block early. It should have been posted today but it was available on Friday, so I took the opportunity to get ahead a little bit.
Luminary block is another big one, measuring 15 ½” square.
I believe there are only a
couple of block releases left and then we get the finishing instructions.
We leave next Sunday for
vacation. We will be away about a week and a half. The plan is to have a cross-stitch
update this Friday. Then I’ll have a quilt and crochet update scheduled to post
on Monday, June 8th. So, if I do not show on your reading list,
please know those are my plans. I always have good intentions of posting while on vacation but have rarely done so. I'll likely post a few times on Instagram and then write a post recapping our trip when I return.
This is going to be a busy
week with trying to finish some tasks for work and packing. I did have a
successful weekend in giving the house a deep clean. Don’t ask me about the
mounds of laundry!
I hope you have a great
week doing all the things you love.
See you soon,
