Easter holiday together with my two children is always playing games. And we had some big laughs while playing this game. And I lost ...........as usual.
And I have done a little bit of sewing these days. Now six blocks of Joy of Life is finished. We had a "block preparing"-meeting last week. When I arrived there I had forgotten to bring my background for the new block, so I just got to trace the pieces and cut them.
And yesterday I prepared block 7.
And out sewing in the sun. We have had marvellous weather for several days now.
But today...................rain rain rain rain. I knew the wonderfull weahter would not stay for long.But at this time I love the rain too because the snow is melting. We now got a swimmingpool in front of the garage.
The weather news are telling we are going to have sun again on friday, I really hope that because Hanne is coming for a visit and it would be nice to sit out on the porch stitching.
And that is perfect sewing weather. So today I pulled out my red fabrics and prepared all blocks for Gail Pans "A Christmas Wish" BOM. I do not know if this is the way Gail is going to sew them together, but I take a chance. Now I have to trace block 2, 3 and 4 (I'm so behind on these blocks)
And I finished the third block in Bunny Hills "A tisket A tasket Twelve months of baskets". Block 4 has been released so I will prepare that one too today I hope. I love this baskets, they are soo cute. So thank you Anne for giving these blocks for free.Saying for today:
Life is like a rainbow.
You need both the sun and the rain
to make its colors appear.

I love your Christmas wish blocks, the reds are so pretty. You do wonderful work with the applique, I have never done any but have printed out the Bunny Hill baskets just in case I want to try some. I too am behind in all of my block of the months but eventually they will get done.

This is the time of year when warm weather comes and goes so quickly you must take adavantage of it while you can.

Your Joy of Life is really beautiful and I love to see your process developing so wonderfully. Also I see you are doing the BOM and they are gorgeous too.. don't wish for nice weather yet..we need more needlework time before the summer starts!!
My kids and I love games . I used to let them win now I'm finding they're "letting"me win . Lol
You have been very productive on your break. Your game looks like a round version of what we call Monopoly.
Enjoy the Easter holiday with your children.
