Spending the day sewing

What I love most about a day off all to myself, is the lack of guilt I feel spending the entire day in the sewing room. I had promised myself I would get the April and May (reproduction fabric) swap blocks done and had such fun choosing which to do to fit the theme of the month.
For April I chose Wagon Tracks. We had the theme of 4-patch. The photo below isn't great but I think you'll see the general idea. This used black, a tan background and one of my favorite blue prints. Since I have so few blues, it is easy to peg this as a favorite!

For May the theme was flying geese. I had 6 to 8 ideas and had a hard time choosing. When I finally did and made up the blocks I was struck by the fact that I must have had a major brain blip!! Excuse me, where are the flying geese units, m'am?? What did I chose? A block named Goose and Goslings and not a flying geese unit to be had! Oh well. I love them anyway and hope the other swappers will too! Must have tried too hard to be perfect!! Gets me every time! I am so NOT perfect boo hoo....*smile*

The storm that dumped snow on the mid-west made it's way East today. I am still waiting for spring, and now I hear the dreaded words: Nor'easter!! Looks like we could be in for it come Sunday night. Hummmm.....isn't it April?? I should know better, lived in the northeast all my life. We've had snow in May. So why should I be surprised?? We shall see what Mother nature has in store for us come Sunday. Think I'll plan more sewing time. Yessss..................
