EMD Thursday....

Why, yes it is Thursday so it is time to show off the just completed Ella Maria Deacon block! I used back basting and then needle turn applique. I did the inner spokes first, thank goodness. The outer one went so much easier. Two more blocks left for this month and one from previous.


Hubby came home not feeling well yesterday from work. He is taking it easy today on his day off. Me, I've had a sore throat for a few days now so I'm taking it easy today on my day off as well. Watching movies and stitching.

I am trying a new recipe for bread - Back of the Bag Oatmeal Bread from King Arthur Flour. It is on the second rise in the bread pan right now. We will see how it comes out. Tonight is take out for Emily's birthday. She wants ribs from Pig and Cattle for her belated birthday dinner since her Dad has worked the last 2 nights.

That is an amazing block, Deb! Loooks like lots of tricky stitching to me. Dinner sounds delicious, too. Hope your scratchy throat turns out to be nothing!

Oh my-that block looks fussy and hard--but you did a nice job on it--and I sure hope your sore throat is just allergies and that hubby is fine now--no getting sick do you hear me--not allowed, period!!!!
stay safe, luv, di

OH I do hope that it is allergies and not the flu of Corona! Take care of you both! Do not wait around with fever over 100.4! Get going on it early.

I love the block! You did a great job!

Keep us up to date that you are both well
