A productive day...

 
 
Yesterday was a no nonsense day without napping and such irresponsible behavior!!! :-))  I took a casserole out of the freezer...and had dinner covered, and then got right to work.  By mid afternoon the chair and quilt were calling my name, however, today I did not succumb to that enticing voice....I persevered and kept at it....I even ate carrots and celery stuffed with peanut butter!
 
 
 
 
I believe I have not shown a close up of this block.  While visiting my daughters home yesterday evening, I'm pleased to report that her bees are busy making honey.  What a bit of magic that whole process is......absolutely fascinating.

 
 
This is the block I completed yesterday....Live In Harmony......all of the blocks have been accounted for....

 
 
And here is the quilt ready for quilting.  Once again my quilt holder is back at his job.  At this point I can hardly wait for the quilter to do her magic on it.  This pattern will not be available until after market.
 
Today, I have my Goin' Fishin' project to work on.  But first a trip to the grocery store and then I need to choose a new book to start....I just finished another Ken Follet book.  He provided a good read.

  2. I can't wait to see this quilted. It is so neat. I just love the sayings on the blocks, the whole quit is just up my alley!! I have been admiring the triangle garden quilt for several weeks and I know I will end up getting that pattern too. I really like your style of designing. Keep up the good work and thanks for doing it..
