What Happened to June?
As of late, Hubs and I have been busy helping our son & his family prep for a move. I’ve been helping them pack, and playing with grand daughter as they do all the things related to their move. One of the things Hubs is doing is building a new back porch for them. The old one had some rotten spots, and dear DIL (and she is a dear, whom we love dearly!) was afraid it would not pass inspection when listing the house for sale. Once Hubs got into pulling up some rotten floor boards, he found rotten floor joists. So even though this was not how he planned on spending his free time in July, it sure looks like a good thing the rebuild is taking place. And truly, he does enjoy woodworking, he is a natural born handyman!
The question is, what did I accomplish in the sewing/quilting world the month of June? Very little! I did manage to keep up with my two BOMs.
Here is June’s block from Leah Day’s Machine Quilting Party
and here is my June’s One Block Wonders creation, one block repeated 4 times.
The kids are moving this weekend. I’ll be traveling with them Saturday. I hope to fit in a few days to help them unpack and keep grand daughter entertained as they get settled in, but not sure which days exactly! There will be a bit of traveling back and forth between here and their new location.

This is lovely. The fabrics are gorgeous and I love the way you placed them.

It has to be such a relief for them to have your help! It always takes me by surprise when these little house projects end up being more work than we initially thought, but how great that your hubby knows how to get it fixed! The blocks are beautiful, great job on being so busy and still being able to sneak in some sewing time. Way to go!! I hope to sneak in a tiny bit of time to make a cafe curtain. That should only take 30 minutes at the most, and I’ll get a bit of sewing time in!
