I am keeping up with the Primitive Gatherings Christmas Blocks that Lisa Bongean is releasing periodically on her blog. My red and green version is coming along pretty well. I even got a comment on Instagram from Lisa herself, saying how much she liked the two colors I was using for my version!
Yesterday was my day off, and I had a list of tasks I was working my way through. Two backings were prepared, then I packed up and mailed to my quilter the last two quilts to be quilted for my family Christmas gifts. I filled out my 2016 election ballot and mailed that in. Whew, talk about being between a rock and a hard place…Then I made the four blocks you see in the photo above. What I did not do was put the borders on two quilts that are waiting, nor did I sew any bindings.
I love my Thursdays off. I usually accomplish quite a bit, and get in some relaxing time as well. I have to say, it is so nice to have the house to myself for a few hours!
As I write this, I am about to go pick up some Chinese take out and go have dinner with my daughter. Hope you all are having a great week.
