Those who know me, know that I like working with what a lot of people throw out - that is scraps. I like making something from what often is considered worthless, much like what God has done with me.
Well yesterday I received a box of of goodies from a dear friend of mine. In it were several yummy tone-on-tone FQ's, a piece of yardage (not sure what I'll do with that tho, hmmm maybe the large commission), and oodles of scrap triangles, completed HST's and other completed block segments.
Part of what was in the box were a large stack of completed 3.5" red and blue HST's. I pulled the HST's and the gold print (was a fat-eighth) along with a muslin remnant that I had and made the final HST's that I needed to make my design. Two more rows to sew together and this block will be done.
Any guesses as to what this block will be when done? ;-)
It will eventually end up in a quilt for myself......sometime..........lol.
Gratitudes:
1. Wonderfully warm weather today and even warmer tomorrow before cold weather comes back over the weekend.
2. For reaching the total-out-of-pocket for insurance because that means I'll be able to get somethings done that I couldn't afford otherwise.
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Jer 29:11 (NIV)

Not fair for me to guess when I KNOW! LOL It looks great, and I'm glad to see those scraps being put to work right away. I'm looking forward to seeing the full block. How big is the whole thing?
Could it be anything but a snail!!?? Silly question! I'm looking forward to seeing what you turn all those lovely scraps into!!
