Happy Mother's Day! from The Cozy Quilter

My daughter was here for the past week and she and Finn went home yesterday. It was nice to have her here. Finn was very excited to see her. He loves it when all of us are together. I did a little bit of cross stitch this past week, but no machine sewing. I finished the framing stitches and added more sky stitches as well. I hope to do more today.

My daughter worked on her crochet while she was here, adding this pretty periwinkle lace border. If you look at the close up, you can see flowers in it ...

He's staring at me as I type this blogpost on the computer...obviously, I need supervision!

Finn is not allowed in my sewing room so I have a baby gate up at the doorway so he can still see ...

Knitting and Stitching! from The Cozy Quilter

Last week, I showed you the block I made for one of the TMQG members for a round robin of sorts. That block was supposed to be done and mailed by the end of July, but I was obviously late! In an attempt to be caught up by the end of August, I made these 4 blocks for D. She had requested black and white with a pop of colour and some words that reflected the times we are in on her block. I found some fabric in my stash with French words on it--Bonjour and Merci were the words ...
