Down Time Post Race

I had a little down time after the race to prop up a knee with ice and grab a little hand work I brought along to Portland with me. I'm not sure if this is block B but it is the one I grabbed and finished.  Wool applique on brushed homespun cotton, whip stitched with cotton thread.

    Great block. Did you use cotton embroidery floss, or just matching regular thread?

    I would have needed more than ice and a little down time after the marathon! Such an accomplishment.

    Now that's a dedicated quilter......one who runs 26 miles but needs to take a few stitches in a block when she sits down to rest. Always have some sewing in your pocket, no matter what else you're doing. I love it!!!!
