This is a paper pieced block from Carol Doaks BOM. I made this one for a quilt that we are making for Heather. She is in the Military and on her way overseas now!!!
Not a hard block but for some reason I screwed it up a few times. I really like the block so I may have to add it to a quilt of mine someday....I guess I will just have to add it to my LONG list of things that I want to make!
Tomorrow afternoon I am going to the heart specialist with my sister. I know Chantal is 23 yrs old but Mom worries so much about all of us kids so I promised her I would go with her. And I think Chantal actually wants me to go too, she gets nervous over things like that. After her appointment she is going back to work and I think I am going to take the boys shopping for school clothes. School starts back here August 5th!!!!!!! I dread getting Andrew's the most, he is 15 and is soooooooooo picky!!!!
I think since school is starting back in a couple of weeks and we have been so busy this summer working on the house...we are taking a little weekend trip. I'll post about it later when I get all of the details planned. As of right now we will be leaving on Friday evening and coming home Sunday evening. Just a short trip!!!!!! I'm not sure how much free time I will actually have but I think I will pack some yo-yo's or something to work on.

I love that red, white and blue block. It is beautiful. I had the same kind of sewing day you did. I seemed to struggle with most everything I picked up. Not hard patterns just me. I'm hoping today is a better sewing day.
