Slow stitching day, and fast stitching too!

My darling friend Lyn, sent me a whole quilt, already cut out, in the designer's original fabrics!!  OH wow...wow!!!  I have been savoring these...scarcely daring to make the blocks!  Just enjoying each block.  Here are today's blocks, 16 of them.  I love them!  
Rosie loves them too!  Isn't that the best thing to do...a gift of time?  It really is!
More hand applique going on for this block...it was great fun!! Of course I need to trim and finish the block. So glad it is supposed to be a primitive quilt, LOL!
Among the leaves drifting down from our oak trees, are zillions of acorns, but these little flowers are there too.  I just love them...no larger than a dime, but a carpet of them.  So pretty!
The grocery store had some flowers that somehow jumped into my basket. Strange how that happened...anything like that happen to you?  Haha!  The pumpkins are from the farmer's market in town.  
I did this!  There was good social distancing, people were respectful and kind, and everyone wore their masks. I spied a mask that I had made, for the community! That really made my day.  Voting only took ten minutes.




Hugs and have a great day, each of you!

What a lovely gift that was! It took me 45 minutes, but we went on the first day. If we hadn't been at the senior center, it would have been at least 2 hours - the line, with distancing was over 1/4 mile long.

Those zig-zags are going to make a really neat quilt! I voted also; no problem. Glad I got it done, thanks to a friend for taking me to deliver my vote by mail ballot. I hope everyone realizes their responsibility to vote; our future depends on that. ---"Love"

Lots of great things in this post, Julie. How nice to spy one of your masks! I think that is fleabane amongst the acorns...a pretty, small and late blooming wildflower. Mine are still blooming too. How great as well to receive the gift of blocks with such a neat design. Happy Stitching!
