Greetings from a windy pretty day in South Texas, but of course, not for long – rain and another cold front by Tuesday. I am happy for the cooler weather!
I have 2 hand projects I am working on concurrently and one pieced project (OMIGOSH).
Hand Quilting: This one is just an 18” x 18” Something Different To Do to practice my hand quilting since I have not hand quilted in 2 or 3 years.
Hand Applique: I am making slow progress on the Stars Around the Garden (SAG) Medallion! I have 2 daisies (on the end of each stem) and a Rose at the top! Slowly but surely it will come together. I have finished all the blocks, they are patiently waiting for the old Lady to get with the hand applique every night not just every now and then! LOL
The pieced project is OMIGOSH and so far I have completed 4 more blocks this week making it a total of 10 blocks completed!
We had a nice day on Christmas but I am so glad the holidays are over with. For years we went to Arizona for the winter and I so miss it. I do not like to stay home for Thanksgiving or Christmas, but New Years Eve I want to be home!
Here is wishing all are well and looking forward to another New Year where we can all start over again. ME? I will be working on my UFO list and try to catch up!
Have a wonderful week!
Hugs, Nanette

Great progress this week, Nanette! The appliqué is almost to the explosion point, that spot where you just have to do another piece! How many OMIGOSH blocks are you thinking?
