I'VE BEEN TRYING......

 for 3 days to post something, but life keeps getting in the way.  Doctors appointments, guests in the house, and just everyday chores.  So this post may be a little long.  And it's Tuesday, so this will also be my To-Do Tuesday post.

Last weeks list...

1. Tie and bind National Day Quilt👎

2.  Rip out 3 rows of gray yarn on Neon Stripe.✔

3.  Lay out Polar Bears to see where I'm at.✔

Sorry to say the National Day Quilt is still in the hoop waiting to be tied.  Same excuse as above.  As far as I know, this coming week should be clear of all the hold ups.   

I ripped out the gray yarn on my Neon Stripe Afghan...and to my surprise, I found several boo boo's.   See the lower right corner...it isn't square..that was 1 of several boo boo's I fixed.  Now I can continue with the gray yarn and decide what color to add next. 

I've laid out the Polar Bears,  I like this arrangement much better.  I still need a few more blocks and the stripes between the rows, then an outside border.  Hoping to have this all done by next Thursday, as that's my day to post about the Polar Bear Plunge Blog Hop.  Are you joining in on this?  Head over to Moose Stash Quilting to check out all the info.

And it's TAST, week 4 over at Sharon's place, Pintangle.  Head over and check out all the embroidery stitches she has in her Stitch Dictionary.  This week's stitch is the Stem Stitch.  I'm going to make a quilt of all the TAST stitches this year.  So I've doing a little embroidery along with quilting.  This is my Stem Stitch block.

I've also got my Center square for the SAHRR cut.  The block is 14 x 14 inches.  This week's addition is going to be curves...I'll have to think on this one and see what I can come up with.  The block looks white, but it's a very light brown with butterfly's.

Well, that's it for today.  Hope you all....
