Slow Sunday Stitching

 The Chipmunk for the Year in the Woods project has gotten part of its legs and its tummy. The tail will come next. These are just so cute!! 

I think I can call this one about 30% done. It is quite fun to be able to stitch this while at the same time watching the chipmunks outside feasting on the bird seed that drops to the ground. I’ll link up to Kathy’s Slow Sunday Stitching.

 I’ve gotten a good start on the Chipmunk for my ongoing A Year in the Woods project. The bottom greenery and flowers are done so I can now get a start on the chipmunk itself. It’s such a cute little critter. I am planning on taking it easy today, watching movies and stitching. So I should be able to make good progress on this project this afternoon and evening. I’ll link up to Kathy’s Slow Sunday Stitching.

 I want to take the opportunity to wish all who celebrate a very happy Resurrection Sunday. 

I wrote last week that I hoped to have the Bear for the Year in the Woods project finished by today. I made that goal with just hours to spare. I finished it last evening and then got a start on gridding the next section for the chipmunk. It is 10 grids across by 14 down. It is time consuming to do, but I have caught so many mistakes by having the grids there that is is more than worth the time and effort to do it.I should be able to finish the gridding today and get a start on this next cute little beastie.

What We’re Working On

 Last summer we issued a challenge to our Prayers and Squares group members to make a block for a sampler. We gave each member a piece of the same material and then challenged them to choose a block that started with the initial of their first name from the Quilters Cache website. Any size was acceptable. We’ve had the blocks for quite a while now, but the challenge was in putting it together. Marg has been working on that off and on for a few months now. She finally finished the quilting on it yesterday. It is fun and bright and happy and unique. It is getting a dark blue binding. Janet has been working on the quilting on this panel quilt. Here at home I found a bag of triangles that were originally cut using my Go cutter for a quilt I did years ago called Northern Tree Line. There were enough of the triangles left to do a small version of that quilt. It is now finished and layered and waiting for quilting. I’ll link up to finished, or not, Friday.
