Before you start a sew-a-thon you need to fortify your body! I did that with my Oatmeal Recipe!
3 tbsp oats
3 tbsp apple sauce
1 tsp (or more) of cinnamon
2 tbsp of raisins
2 tbsp of Chia seeds
And 1/2 cup of water
Stir it up and put it in the microwave for 2 - 3 minutes on high. Add coconut milk to cool and eat it up!
Thimbleberries "Safe Haven". Block 1
Making a 20" block takes longer than, 15 minutes, which is how long I planned to spend on this block. Add that to the 30 half square triangles (which are not a favorite of mine) and it was two hours before I was done!
Although I must admit, I was interrupted by a FaceTime call from my granddaughter who wanted to share her families mini vacation with me. We had a little tour of her "amazing" hotel room. It's amusing to me the things that entertain a seven year old.
And In between all the half square triangles, a few friends and I, started an iPhone-A-thon so we could keep in touch with each other while we sewed.
After lunch, I started one of the Easter projects from my March Newsletter, I wasn't really pleased with my fabric choices so I probably will make it again. But not today.

Then it was supper time! And after I ate, any thoughts of returning to the sewing room were gone! I had good intentions to go back and do some paper piecing blocks. It didn't happen!
But to end the night off, I went and enjoyed one of my favorite videos.
