You may notice that the next few blocks are a variation on a theme, namely crosses.  This Dear Jane block D7 Meeting Place was exceptionally simple to do and quickly ticked off the list.

I have been busy trying to finish some outstanding UFO's in my project cupboard, the ones that really only need half a day on them to actually be finished and have been added to my To DO list daily for the past year.  Meanwhile I will tyr in fit in these Dear Jane blocks - I definitely do not want that to become a UFO.

Summer has arrived in the UK.  It is always a surprise when it does.  We spend the year (or more) longing for it and then when it comes we are wholly unprepared and cease to function properly.  Not to worry, it should be over by the weekend.

This is Dear Jane border triangle BR11 Tartan.  I have always liked a purple tartan, so this worked out well.

A day of Dear Jane block prepping is due.  I can see the light at the end of the tunnel on this project and am in the mood to cut all the remaining blocks if the heat lets me.
