I am home from my trip to Kentucky, Ohio, and the Antique Roadshow. Unfortunately, my cousin and I aren't rich but we are rich with good memories of the day spent in Cincy at the Roadshow.
I began working on some Homestead machine embroidery blocks today. This is one of Anita Goodesign's new Special Editions. It includes tree, animal, quilt, and building blocks. I plan to do one of each and make a small sampler for a friend. Later this evening I hope to begin the block with a hanging quilt. My fabrics are brighter than the sample from Anita Goodesigns. As many of you know, I am using up my stash and these were the colors I selected. I'm liking it. Blocks are 7" when finished. It's good to be back in the studio after dealing with health issues and vacation. I do have a few medical procedures scheduled this month but I'm hoping the end is near.
