A Fun Friday Night Sew-In...

Hello!  :)


I did it! Even though I'm still sick I was able to participate in the Friday Night Sew-In! Yeah!!!  :)  It was nice to sew again.  :)

I worked on my Garden Steps Quilt for the . . .


Remember this pile of cut fabric?


I've turned it into this . . .


12 beautiful blocks of Ruby goodness! I love Ruby! I actually only got 6 of the blocks done on Friday night, but I was able to finish up the other 6 today.  :)  Now I'm ready to begin the embroidery on the center squares. Only 1 design has been released so far so I'm not too far behind. I can't wait to get started on the embroidery.  :)

Until next time . . .
