Another great idea for a blog hop from Carla at Creatin'in the sticks.

Now my first obvious thought was to do an orange peel quilt, I have a pattern for one they is in my one day file in my head but I couldn't find the pattern I can see it its a loose piece from either a magazine or shop brochure but I couldn't find it. So then I thought I am on a mission to finish my huge pile of WIP'S so I pulled out the Happiness Quilt circa 2014 from Monica Poole it was published in Homespun magazine as a block of the month done as a quilt as you go. I bought the material in March 2014, sewed some of the blocks in April 2017 on a weekend sewing trip and then last year I finished the rest of the blocks last year. So it is time to start quilting as I go

I have a few quilts with orange waiting to be sewed together or quilted this one is Whirligig by Emma Jean Janson

This is the second block from the Happiness Quilt

I bought a new sewing machine to use at sewing days but mainly on my quilt frame that still hasn't been put together but it will this weekend. I have helped the husband build raised garden beds and a chook pen and we have chopped down trees to put in the bottom of the raised beds and I am done I am going to work tomorrow in a new to me nursing home to get a rest from building and lugging and chopping and digging and barrowing.

These are the other clever people in the blog hop go see what they have done
