Swimming Up Stream

 It's almost a time for the salmon to start 

Going back to where they were born.


These little blocks were discovered 

when I was packing up blocks

for the quilt Canada leftover block challenge

I feel good saying that 190 blocks 

are on their way to go into charity quilts

to be done at quilt Canada.

These little fishes will be starting to swim upstream

on a background of white on white.  

Ripples will be sewn into the white squares 

a water effect.


I would love to have it ready for this 

month's meeting but I'm not sure how far I'll get today!

So, here is where it lands this morning!

Some precut 5 1/2"  strips made great

background blocks and it is ready to stitch!



It will certainly be ready by next month's meeting.

And also that time of year again.

I have another retreat coming up!

Most of the prep for that is done.

I just need to recharge the sewing kit and

 verify a few projects and I'll be ready.

My little featherweight,

 with the handi work tray always goes along to retreats.

Have a great week stitching!
