Patchwork of the Crosses – Peppermint

Another block with its surrounding cream hexagons. Every time I look at this one I think of peppermints.

My hands/wrists are giving me a bit of a problem at the moment. I can’t use the rotary cutter or iron and am finding even using the computer mouse a bit challenging. My intake of Omega 3 capsules has increased so I’m hoping this won’t last too long as I’ve run out of the cream hexagons and need to print some more. In order to do that, I need to cut some of the cream fabric and press it.

This one is a favorite of mine. Hot pink is my favorite color. I certainly hope that your wrists start feeling better. That really puts a damper on your hand stitching. By the way, we did go and rescue a new kitty. I posted last night pictures and we need a name. Stop by and help out.

Mmmm, how pretty. But, it reminds me of salt water taffy with the creamy white outside and the swirl of color inside. Hope your hands get better soon. I know how frustrating that can be. I have a thumb that acts up when I do bindings or applique.
