I AM ALL CAUGHT UP--

I finally have January's blocks and February's blocks all finished--

and here is a picture of Miss Gracie checking it out, before I got the embroidery on it--
she walked the whole length of it--inspecting each block--
then--when-- she--
got to the end, she turned to me and said--
"well--when you gonna finish it , Mom???"
She is such a 'slave driver'--
bet she has been taking lessons for our very own 'Chookyblue'!!!!!
Hugs, Di and that cat!!!

Can't say what is prettier Di - your lovely blocks or Miss Gracie, even from behind. It's going to be such a pretty quilt. Tracee xx
