Mojo Returning

Been a tad slack on the blog front, And now it's Christmas time! Where did this year go???
On the quilting front, my mojo has been severely lacking. Around a month ago it wained. So I filled my time with x stitch instead, but that wasn't cutting it either. So I fumbled around in quilting limbo, which sucked! I just didn't want to stitch anything I had or was working on. So I decided to try something different and make my own blocks. And low and behold it worked! Fingers crossed it will stay and not retreat again.
So, here are the blocks I've been working on and I'm calling the quilt " Charmed ". 
The blocks are 4 1/2" finished.  Such a pleasure to work on individual blocks.

These are the first 6.


With sashing and two more for the pot.


And the latest blocks I've been working on.

I figure some pieced blocks will be nice, but mainly want applique blocks in the quilt.

I've also done a bit more on Natures journey SAL, only one border left to go!


And some more on my Brinton hall, had to change background, only cut it wrong twice, lol!!


And some more blocks on my sundial sampler.




The sundial is slow going, but it will get there eventually. Beautiful quilt to work on too.

And that's it from me, better scoot and get some housework done!
Till next time,
Keep it stitchy ;))

  4. Lovely work - it's great to break out from the prescribed and to "play" with blocks and fabrics as a way of getting the mojo back. Sometimes I think the prescribed can stifle us - good luck!

  9. My goodness, Kel! If the work you showed is when your mojo is flagging, it must be something else when fully engaged. All the projects are fab, but your own creations are the best. I sense a pattern in the making.

  17. I was cured of HIV with the use of natural herbs that I ordered through Dr Itua Herb store https://drituaherbalcenter.com/shop/. I love Traditional Medicine so much. Most times, injection and drugs are just a waste of time and money. I was cured 3weeks ago, i suffered from HIV for 5yrs but with the help of Dr. Itua herbal medicine, I was cured within three weeks of drinking the herbs he sent to me through courier delivery service. This same man also cured my Aunt from herpes, as soon as I heard she had herpes, I referred her to the doctor and she was cured after drinking his herbs.I have referred more than 18 persons and they were all cured from their various illnesses. Have you taken herbs before?. You have spent so much money on drugs,injections,surgeries etc and yet you have no good result to show for it. This man is a herbal doctor, I assure you of cure if you drink his natural herbs. He has herbs that cures Hiv, Herpes, diabetics, asthma, hepatitis, etc. Contact Dr. Itua on email: drituaherbalcenter@gmail.com.
