I have been battling a cold all week but did get these squares sewn on.Now for the trimming.

Nada, nil, zilch zero. However you want to say it not a stitch taken this week. I've been sick and just getting up and ready has taken all my energy. I think I'm on the mend so next weeks report should be better.

I managed to work on this quilt 5 out of 7 mornings. A little progress has been made. All ready to sew the first corners on for my square-in-square blocks.

It seems to me a ridiculous title for a post when we have had one of our warmest summer days. The post title refers to a Block of the Month I have signed up for. It was love at first sight when I saw this pattern - I dream of a house filled with Xmas quilts and I love the French General fabrics it is made with.

My confession is I also have the entire Block of the Month of another Xmas Bunny Hill design again using French General fabrics that I have never ever opened. So to prevent the same thing happening I have set myself  a challenge. Every morning before I leave the house I have to work on this project. Doesn't matter how little the effort is - the important thing is to keep moving forward. I will report progress every Saturday as being accountable tends to keep me focussed,

So what did I achieve this week. A pile of squares cut and starting to be marked. They will ultimately be square in a square blocks.
