Quick Update

We are off to Jamestown in a minute to deliver quilts, so just a short post to show what I did yesterday.

Another Fancy 4-patch block. These are so cute and not hard to piece. I just have to remind myself to slow down and take care with the tiny pieces.

Lots of cutting of random 2.5" strips that I seem to have accumulated. These will make a lot of the blocks from this video from The Quilted Forest

I love the videos in this series of hers, they are really popular, and have so many good ideas.

People love planting Zinnias and this is why. These went in as seedlings just before our series of blisteringly hot days, and they positively jumped out of the ground laughing at the heat.

My poor tomato is probably toast, it really suffered. I'm such a bad gardener, because I leave things to struggle on instead of ripping them out and planting afresh. So long as this poor old thing keeps trying, I'll give it a chance.

The Verbena were burnt off, but bounced back. And the geranium just hung in there like it usually does. My garden is still looking pretty, tomatoes aside. No crop for me this year.
