Tomorrow I take hunny for his colonoscopy. It is just a base line; he'll be seventy years old this year. I will need to sit and wait while the procedure is done. We will arrive at eight AM and the proceedure won't start until nine. I have no idea how long I will have to wait. It was nescessary to find something to do. For me, reading is out of the question in these situations.
I happened to be in a non quilting closet and saw a box I didn't remember what was in it. When I opened it it was a UFO. I had cut out the block pieces and even started to assemble one of them. I was thrilled with the idea of working on it. Delving deeper in the box I realized the pattern was there (I usually put patterns in the box with my "pigs". This was a free pattern I had found on the internet. I figured I could go back and find it. NOT! I couldn't even remember the site where it had been. I queeried my internet friends if they remembered it; so far I have had no one respond. I decided to take the already cut out pieces and scan them. It worked. I have now made my templates so I can make more blocks. right now I only have 7 blocks cut out. To make a nice wall hanging I need at least 8 possibly 10. It will be acording to how I decide to lay out the blocks and what I pick for a center block and the borders.
The applique on these blocks is to be needle turn.
The picture at the beginning of the blog is the block I started 3 years ago. As I work on each block I will post it.
