"Was a Sunny Day. Not a cloud was in the sky "........


YES,the sun is shining today,both inside and outside: I did it!!

Still September at my part of the world for another 7 hours.
Well,dear Stitch-A-Long friends,must admit this block F has been the most
difficult block to finish. Very glad as well as proud I made it.

Thanking you,Chookyblue,for me its working with given dates. And I do love to follow the blog in our journey towards March. Very inspiring,lots of lovely blocks. I see fabric-ranges I could gladly have swapped to any time!

My block there is placed on a mirror on the lawn. The blue you see is the sky,
and the sun beams is shining on my block. The sky had a stronger blue
colour,but reflected different in the mirror. However I like the picture!

Now very soon ready for our October block B.
Happy Stitching to all of you, Take Care :-)

Grethe, I found this one hard to finish too...I wonder why? What a creative photo...for a minute I thought you'd given up on the quilt, and framed your block instead! Another lovely block...keep up the great work!

Your block is lovely, Grethe. Your squares are so even and accurate, compared to mine.

This block took time to stitch but I think it looks fantastic with the lady resting in the shadow. At this time of year we must say thank you for every sunbeam we get.
You are creative with the mirror.
