Most blogs that I link to are all about quilting or sewing. My apologies as this week I only have one picture. It’s the finished crocheted dress.
I could have taken a picture of my desk cleared for sandwiching, or the backing that is now on the ironing board to be pressed, but decided not to.
On that note, my list from last week:
- finish the crocheted dress–done
- Make the last 3 blocks on the hand sewn top.–only 1 of them done
- Sew the backing for the rick rack quilt–sewn and ready to press
- Clean off my desk to be ready to sandwich quilts.–done

I put the crocheted dress on Lemmy to model it. Azalea was premature so she’s not much bigger than Lemmy. She was happy to model it for me (after she dumped out 2 boxes of toys in front of the couch)

So many things that I would love to get done in a week. So many activities outside of the home that I choose to do. So many websites to surf to earn pennies. But, I hope to get things done over the next week:
- Finish the last 2 blocks on the hand sewn quilt and sew as many rows together as I can.
- Sandwich the rick rack quilt.
- Get out green scraps for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge color of the month.
- Start writing more than one blog post a week.
P.S. Is it me, or is there no longer a way to comment on the Wednesday Wait Loss post over on The Inquiring Quilter?
I am linking up with the following blogs:

Hi Marsha, I was unable to respond to your comment asking about the Little House sew along. The first block will be available tomorrow – February 5th. You will be able to find the link for the pattern in that post.
Thanks for the interest. I look forward to seeing your blocks!
Hi Marsha! Sorry about the commenting thing; I’ve fixed it. I love that adorable crocheted dress! Lemmy sure is a sweetheart to model it for you. That fringed yarn at the bottom makes this so special. I’m sure Azalea will love it! Thanks for sharing on my weekly show and tell, Wednesday Wait Loss.

The dress and the model are just adorable. Good luck with your plans for this week.
Hi Marsha,
Please email me with your questions about the maple leaf block and log cabin frame from the Little House Sampler Sew Along.

Marsha Lemoyne and that little dress are both just too cute! Thank you for sharing on To Do Tuesday. I.ove seeing the varied projects you work on. I also knit, weave and even tried my hand at needlepoint besides quilting.
