The table cloth needs just one more strip of log cabins …


As the end of the school year approaches with lots of activities …







And then there’s this …

Surely the earliest tomato harvest we’ve ever managed.

And then there’s this …

Surely the earliest tomato harvest we’ve ever managed.
I saw this and saved it on Instagram …

It says everything about how I feel when I stitch …

and why I could never call it patch-work.
I had so so many bits and pieces of cloth leftover from the Albers triads and painting log cabins … so I’ve been piecing pairs, then combining them into strips, and stitching the strips into blocks …

Most of the patches are whipped together with two strands of black DMC floss, for unity …

The blocks ended up being around 8” or so … but I’m not measuring at this point. Eventually they’ll be pieced together into 54” strips and added to the table cloth.
