I have been sewing~ one project I can't show you~ yet. It is going in the mail tomorrow. ;-)
But~ I have been having fun playing in my sheets! LOL I have 8 blocks finished for the Great Granny Quilt Along. I am doing them in my vintage sheet collection and I just love how they are turning out. You can see all my seams because of the dark floor~ you won't when it is sandwiched and quilted. I am going to make 4 more blocks, so I have 12.
Since the sheets were out... :-/ and I couldn't resist! I also cut squares for the Fusion Blanket Crochet Along that Little Miss Shabby and friends are hostessing. I said I wasn't joining another thing...but... ah... I found yarn on sale and already had the sheets... so....

| sigh I am weak. |
I cut out my squares a little larger than the Crochet Along gals are doing, and I put a piece of flannel in between so the sheets wouldn't show through and to add a little more body. I need to stitch around these and then put them by my chair for blanket stitching. This is going to be a longer term project, but just right for nights when I have my tootsies in the air. ;-)
Hope you are finding a little sewing time this summer too!
Until next time~
Happy Stitchin'!

Looks great Sandie!
Soooo sweet! The vintage sheets are perfect for the granny blocks... and I wouldn't have been able to resist the Crochet along either... the only reason why I didn't join in is because I don't know how to crochet.
So pretty! I went and looked at the fusion crochet that looks so cool! I look forward to seeing yours.

Love your great granny squares...OK now I have to add that to my bucket list...I need that 36 hour day. I'll be going more regularly to the thrift store and hope I find some vintage sheets. Thanks for sharing!!
