Done is good
Three things to be happy about:
(1) Good Friday
(2) having faith
(3) Cadbury's
I saw a blurb a while ago that said Cadbury's will no longer distribute their chocolates in the U.S. That's too bad, I love their chocolate! Oh chocolate bunny ears, where shall I get you now??? Speaking of chocolate, have you ever shopped at Chocosphere? I bought from them a few years ago - twice in fact - their chocolates are wonderful!
So much for that.
I never reported progress on my Wee Bee Christmas exchange - the blocks are all done!
I stuck with the angels, they're so easy to make. They're all on white or cream background except for the two blue ones, just for a bit of variety.
They were super simple to stitch down, just two pieces that I raw edge appliqued. No muss, no fuss!
That's it for now - have a great Friday; sew forth and sew on til later!

Just a chip of a challenge
Three things to be happy about:
(1) doodling in a notebook
(2) wishing others well
(3) sharing your successes
Our guild challenge this year is to make a quilt or garment or bag or whatever from at least two colors from a paint chip that we drew.
I drew this green!
I was hoping to shop my stash for this challenge, and I thought I had a piece of solid fabric that matched the next to lightest color, but I don't - it has too much blue in it.
Ironically, some of the fabric that I could have used was used up in my Wee Bee challenge. There's not enough of any of it left - oh well!
This one would have been perfect - BUT - I have less than a fat quarter left!
Nope!
I can't even fudge this one!
Since we have to use at least two of the colors, I think this one's a good match! I have about 3/4 yard left - the quilt has to be at least 12 inches.
I can add two other colors to the focus fabrics, and/or black and white.
Challenge!
I know I can do this, just needs a bit of figuring out - sew forth and sew on til later!
