Thanks! Some of the credit needs to go to one of my sisters. I'd sent her pictures of what I was working on and begged her to send me some scrap strips. I used several of what she sent in the June block. I also just pulled a few fabrics to start July. After the start of the month with red, white, & blue, I got stuck on what I wanted to do next. So, that got put away for the day and I'm working on making a couple of grocery bags. I've got pictures on my blog of the one that I made...LOVE the free pattern and the resulting bag is strong & holds a lot. http://teachingthirdgraders.blogspot.com/ |

Thanks! I've got fabric cut for two more shopping bags that are "masculine" so that DH will use them...haha. If it weren't for him, I'd do all girly stuff.  |

Go Go Go...you can do it.. you really can!!! If you are TOO far behind then just start with July 1... fill in the previous months later. It is a mental game at this point.. you can win!
YEAH Sparker!!!!!

You ROCK!!!! This is a bit of a labor of love.. it's NOT HARD .. but in order to stay on top of it you really do need to sew strips or blocks or whatever in a very consistent manner. It took me two tries to get mine done!

Great going TheaM1! I'm through with July. I have the strips for August cut through today, so I need to sit down and sew them this weekend when I can finally take a breather from the crazy work week!

How's everyone doing? It seems like ages ago that I finished July's block ahead of time. Now I'm behind.  |

Hey! Yeah...I'm behind, too. But only about 3 weeks. I actually have a reprieve coming up over Labor Day weekend--no family obligations <GASP!!> and no plans made as of yet (trying to keep it that way, too!) . So, I'm hoping that I'll catch up on August's strip and get September going as well. That's my plan anyway, and I'm sticking to it...until the next unexpected thing comes up! HAHA! |
