I have finished my Prairie Flower block for the Pieces of the Santa Fe Trail sew along hosted by Melva Loves Scraps.
I’ve been trying to walk more lately. For the last couple of weeks, I’ve tried to get out each day. I’m up to 2 miles a day now, as I walk/plod along in my comfy tennies, soft socks, stretchy yoga capris, t-shirt and hair in a pony tail. Still, that last half mile doesn’t seem to get done fast enough. Reading the excerpt in Melva’s post about Marion’s walk with her mama adjusted my attitude about that last little half mile. I hardly have right to complain. If you haven’t read the excerpt and you’re curious what I’m referring to, you’ll need to go read it. You can find it right here.
Often when I walk, these flowers greet me along the way.
Since I’ve used purple and pink in my earlier blocks, I decided I’d go with yellow for my Prairie Flower block. Based on what I read in the excerpt, I think Marion would have seen some yellow flowers along the way, too.
This is the 7th block in the sew along. Here are all my blocks so far:
I’ve been enjoying making these blocks when Melva releases them, along with reading the excerpts and recalling our trips to Santa Fe.
Thanks for stopping by and taking a peek at my Prairie Flower block!
Happy Monday, all!
