tiny Tuesday sampler restart

In September, I started planning my Tiny Tuesday adventure. I still have a main ufo I am concentrating on, but, I thought I would take this little rainbow scrap challenge sampler with me to open sew for comedic relief. I started this in 2019 and I have most of the blocks finished. I realized I had not made any of the dark blocks. Dark colors are usually the last months of the challenge, and, by then, I tend to lose interest. As a reward for making progress on midnight flight, I would make a dark block for the sampler - or eat a treat. The center blocks are 4 1/2 inches. In the sampler, the borders are either straight or diagonal. I still can't be sure if all the blocks are done, until I start joining the blocks into rows. I may have to fill in with more blocks that I discover are missing. It's a start.








Imagine my surprise when over the weekend, this happened in my sewing room. My poor Christmas cactus has a timing problem but is beautiful.

  1. You've started to finish a long time UFQ! I have several Christmas cactus blooming also. Perhaps it's a weather thing, it is very unusual for our weather to be this warm in November, maybe it's affecting the house plants also? Happy stistching!
