What a nice weekend! Lots of sunshine (a little too warm for May, but given that it was the first non-rainy weekend in recent memory, I'm not going to complain!) combined with a fairly short list of things on the "to do" list made for a relaxing couple of days. I spent the entire afternoon in the sewing room yesterday and managed to finish up all of the nine patches for my Lisa's Garden quilt. I still have 8 blocks left to applique and then need to come up with the setting. I am definitely doing it different from the instructions, but can't decide if I want to include the squares around the border or not. Decisions, decisions!
I also spent a little time hooking over the weekend and made a little more progress on my Crazy Horse project.
I pulled out the red in the first flower and finished filling in the second one. I'm not sure what direction I am going to go with the petals on the first one. It really seems to defy traditional logic to hook the background before the motifs, but I feel like I need to have the background colors in place in order to make decisions on the flower colors. I plan to continue working on the background for a while before filling in any other motifs.
