I only got a little sewing in on Thursday, but I was able to make this set of 4 bright green split nine patches. I should have time later today to make 4 dark green ones. Linking up with the RSC on Saturday.
I did a little green crochet this week, but decided to stop at this point on the dish cloth and use it as is. This one is the griddle stitch or the lemon peel stitch. I'll try the Moss stitch next, I think. This one is a little long for me, so I'll start with less chains on the hook for the next one. I guess I prefer my cloths to be more of a 6-7 inch square. This one was almost twice that.
I'll start off my morning with a ride on a horse. It has been over a month since I have ridden so hopefully it all comes back to me! I asked for an early ride time since the heat just does not agree with me (I know, I live in the wrong state!). Nothing is scheduled for the rest of the weekend. Might I get a little sewing time in? Fingers crossed. I hope to make a couple of bright green garden path blocks to finish off that collection of blocks. Who knows, it might even become a top and get quilted!

in a way it is amazing that Florida is so hot already. It is not the right state for me the few times I visited the state in the late spring or early fall I just wilted
This sure seems like it's been a winter/spring of extremes all over the country. We have so much snow here in our part of SD that it will be weeks before we see any "too hot" kind of temps. I really like how those Split 9 blocks look when put together. I made one of them this week just as a test because I kept seeing them online. More of them are probably going to happen.
Hope you had a fun horse ride this morning and remembered what to do! I like your split 9s laid out to get the circle look. I'm going to have to try that!
Split nine patch is a very versatile block, yours are looking great, Deb.
I so like your split nine patch!! I decided to use it for my rainbow scrap color blocks each month. Thanks for the inspiration!
