Oh well...March in the Maritimes. It happens...:o)!!! Your facets quilt is very intriguing - I love the juxtaposition of the blue blocks against the multi-coloured pieced blocks - lovely! Looking forward to seeing it progress. We are headed for a big snowstorm this weekend here on the Atlantic coast. Oh well…March in the Maritimes. It happens…:o)!!!

Ready for spring but I can wait since it looks like summer is going to be long and hot. Lovely facets quilt. It will change the look a lot to do more of the blue blocks but that should look lovely! If you don't want to change the look, I'd purchase a few batik fat quarters or fat eighths to finish it. Yes, here I am advocating fabric purchases when I'm on a fabric diet. Feel free to ignore me.

Which probably seems normal for Arizona, but usually we get those temps starting in April. We are way too early to start warming up. I've already pulled out the flip-flops and have been wearing shorts. I'm afraid we're in for a scorcher of a summer! I absolutely love how your facets quilt top is turning out! Those blue batik blocks are going to be amazing in it. Great plan!! The weather here has been unseasonably warm. 80′s and 90′s.

Shoes without socks were not enough to keep out the colder 11C air. But, on a brighter side,almost cool enough to start quilting again, in the 30C heat, it was way too hot.Love those diamonds, and the contrasting rows are superb.
