Ric Rac Roundup and a 1 Xmas Tally

It didn't hurt a bit ... I just bit the bullet, pinned the rac rac and sewed. My first attempt was a bit skimpy but the 2nd and 3rd letters were ok so after some un-sewing, I have the first three letters ready.

Last night while waiting for the State of Origin Footy Match to start, I made a start on these 2 blocks. Unfortunately my sewing machine was effecting the TV reception so once the game started it was a no sew zone. So at lunch I finished them off.

Block  #5

Block  #6

I'm undecided. Should I or should I not share an update of the clever Elves who have been able to add to their Christmas stash each month since January ... just for fun.

Happy Sewing  >^..^<

    oh the ricrac really makes them show up nicely... like a little frame around your work... I should think you had to stop sewing ... nothing should come in between our men and their footy!!!
    You are doing well with your blocks...
