I Can't Seem to Help Myself

 I did get all my re-sewed blocks pressed, but the man in the brown uniform brought me a toy today that I absolutely HAD to play with.  Mr. Muddling bought me a GO! cutter for my birthday.  I had played a little with the die that came with it, but today I got the small drunkard's path die.  Can you see all those stacks?  I cut them in NO time.  Seriously.


And of course them I had to sew them together.



These are not even pressed yet and they look so sweet.  Oh my.  I hope I get some sleep tonight......

Hugs and kisses,

Hi Elaine

Thanks for your kind comment about Charlie the Elephant over on Bustle & Sew - I must admit I "cheated" slightly with the hexagons - but watch out for the pattern/tutorial - plus accuquilt cutter giveaway this weekend.

I have never done a thirties repo quilt. Love your colors. It's always been on the one of these days list. Your project makes me want to "move it up". Love the puppy pic. and that grandbaby photo....Ever make little girl dresses?
