Nothing in and nothing out!  I am working on my second shoes (Sally King - BFC) quilt.  This one has the embroidery on a green background.  I have 13 embroidered blocks and am using log cabin setting blocks (12).  So far, I have most of the embroidered blocks done (3 rows of 1-inch fabric around the embroidery), with just the last row to sew onto the last 5 shoes.  I'm again encountering the problems that come with sewing from stash.  I had planned to make the setting blocks with the same 3 fabrics used around the embroidered blocks, and adding 2 more.  I won't have enough of one of the fabrics (the outside one), so I need to decide what I want to do instead.  I'll try to come up with something in the next couple of days.  I would like to finish the quilt this week, if possible.  It will use some of my stash greens, which will be good.  I may decide to do the setting blocks "scrappy."

 

I think we'll go see "McFarland" on Wednesday--then Stations on Friday and another week will be gone.  Time has been flying by.  We're having a lot of melting, with very little new snow.  We may even have a real spring this year!
