It seems like the last couple weeks I've pendulum swung between 2 things: sewing like mad or desperately needed de-cluttering (my kids are scared I'm gonna throw all their toys away while they sleep!). So either I de-clutter (kids toys, the tupperware cupboard, the linen closet) or I stay up sewing late at night. When it comes to de-cluttering, I've really embraced the less-is-more mentality. It's the first time I've thrown AWAY tupperware, and stuck only with the stuff we regularly use. (who needs 30 clean baby food jars, anyways?) It's quite freeing, really. I ask myself: have I used it in the last year? If not, it goes - either to Goodwill or trash.
The husband has been working lots (and lots) of late nights, which then results in lots of late nights for me doing my favorite thing - sewing. And these Farmer's Wife blocks are just too fun! (Note: I did update my last post - switched around a few blocks)
Here are the next 14. (Told you I was obsessively sewing late at night!)
Block 7 - Birds In the Air
Block 8 - Bouquet
Block 9 - Box
Block 11 - Broken Dishes
Block 12 - Broken Sugar Bowl
Block 13 -Buckwheat
Block 16 - Calico Puzzle
Block 17 - Cats and Mice
Block 18 - Century of Progress (I switched this one up a little)
Block 19 - Checkerboard
Block 20 - Churn Dash
Block 21 - Contrary Wife
Block 22 - Corn and Beans
At this rate I'll be done by - oh - next week. And I'll also be dead - from lack of sleep.
