 I had a busy day yesterday. My class was from 1:00-3:00 in the afternoon then I came home and worked on this:
There are approximately 4,000 hand sewn hexagons in it. It's called Grandmother's Flower Garden. I finished it just after 11:00 last night and now I can focus on some other hand sewing that I need to get done; I have a couple of other hexagon tops started but they can wait for a while.

I am going to finish the Log Cabin Heart this week or maybe early next week. I only have about ten blocks to finish. These are the ones that take extra care, also the ones that are the most interesting. It won't take me long to make them unless I make too many mistakes. These are the diagrams for six of the ten blocks. I will have the diagram for the last one tomorrow.

They are not too tricky and I don't foresee them taking too long. Then all that remains is putting the top together. Quilting won't be for a while, I didn't have the money to buy any batting this month. I needed shoes and the car needed tabs; just one of those months. Next month will be better, at least I hope so, you never know.

Anyway, in terms of accomplishment, I have gotten a lot done the last couple of days. Including sweeping and mopping my bedroom. Now it's time to relax with the coffee and the sewing and see what else I can accomplish today.
