End of Month Update....

Well, didn't quite make it for the end of August but here is my progress to date.....all the little diamonds now in a compact box so together with scissors, cotton it becomes more portable......
and here is the progress to date.... the top row is sewn down and the side row is being organised for spacing!

No more time for chatting - off to have dinner and then get on with the stitching!

Happy Stitching!
Asta

that little box looks way to organized...you are almost done and then your little box will look very empty but just in time to fill 'er up with more squares for Sept. assignment. Your center block look s great.
