Lots of Blocks

All the little Drunkard’s Path units in Rouenneries are done now. This stack is about 80 of them. They are so much fun to stitch that I just can’t stop.


This is the arrangement I think I’m going to use. If I do, each of these 4-unit blocks will finish at 6″.


I did some baking on the weekend — and the special teddy bear assistant baker was overseeing. Chocolate crinkles, some macaroons and, of course, butter tarts were made. Almost all that I baked has been given to friends and neighbours now. I love baking and, as we have lots of neighbours and friends to whom we can give baked goods, I’ve got more planned for this week.

One thing I’ll be looking for at the Boxing Day sales will be a cookie press.

Smudge is now doing some serious training for the lounging competition. This picture almost qualifies for inclusion in the “where’s the cat’s head” category.


Lester looks like he’s getting ready to be a judge.

  1. Wow, you really have been cranking out the Drunkard's Path blocks. They look great. When I made mine that is the layout that I used and loved it!! I am going to give Smudge a run for his money in the lounging competition by the end of this week.

  3. Holy Cow!!! Can we say "speed piecing"? Really nice blocks. Love the fabrics. I may have to go looking for that line of fabs. You know, I was thinking of cookie press yesterday. I will have to get mine out. I was using the Smudge pose yesterday…felt good. Lester is really on watch!
