Green and Cream Patchwork of the Crosses

It seems I will be showing some of these blocks as I add the cream hexagons. My plan is to work on this pretty well exclusively, although I'm sure I will need a break here and there. I now have six of the blocks completed with their surrounding cream hexagons. I will have to print more of the cream hexagons this weekend as I only have enough printed for another 2 blocks. Perhaps adding the cream hexagons as I made each block would have been a good idea. That said, it's nice mindless stitching with lots and lots of continuous stitching and does go rather quickly.

Lester -- where else but the windowsill!


Smudge the great hunter with his prize -- a toy stuffed duck. It was so funny to see him resting his head on the little thing and he stayed like that for a very long time!

Those greens and blue greens really speak to me, Cathie.

At the rate you're going, you'll have this baby wrapped up in no time...and I mean the quilt...not the fur babies. (wink)

This one's very pretty with the cream surroundings--the cross really stands out here.

Love the great duck hunter!
