At first, I didn't like the pink one when I saw how I had sewn the zigzag in different directions, but now I think it looks whimsical. Do you like it ? or not?
These two blocks are part of a donation box for Quilts for Survivors. You can read more about this Canadian non-profit organisation at Quilts for Survivors.
Michele's quilts (see them here) and two tops I made, Buttons and Spools (here) and Paper Chain (here), are also part of the donation. They are travelling to Timmins this month. It is my first big donation.
On the trail to Blues.
Poor blue. Due to the freaking unbelievably hot and humid weather we had this past week (like +34C) (in June, mind you!!), my son came home to the AC. I, therefore, had to remove all the blue scraps from his bed. (See last post)
The blue scraps are now all over my cutting and sewing area. Sigh!

At work, it is Real Estate Season, meaning lots of phone calls, cheques and keys change hands. I get home too tired to sew, so there's very little to show.
Double Halo had its star completed last weekend but nothing else.
Transitioning 9 patch blocks from pink to blue;
Little blue buds; one for a crumb block, and on the right, a Stained Glass bud.
Talking buds...
I bought these at a very good price since the season for planting is almost over.
The orange one is a begonia, that I know, but the one I'm holding is ... a double begonia? something else? The pot lost its name tag. Does anyone know the name? Thanks for helping.
That's all I have for now.
Hope you have plenty of sewing time.
Enjoy it!
