Sweet Dreams blocks are finished!

Well I’ve finally finished sewing all of the Sweet Dreams blocks and I’m very happy with the way they have turned out. 

Block 15 – another block where I could add a few more rabbits…

Block 16

Block 17 – this block really pops from a distance…

Block 18

Now comes the decisions about how to place the blocks so I’ll play around with them on the design wall for a few days. here’s a few layouts I’m considering:

At the moment #2 is my favourite but I’ll give a couple more days of consideration.

Other than sewing news – life is good here. I feel happier and more content than I have in years so I have no complaints, no regrets. DH is ‘working’ from home a few days each week as he winds down and we are enjoying hanging out together, sitting around drinking coffee, talking about our plans for the house and trips we want to do – its nice to have more time together.  The weather is cold and snowy, perfect to be cozy inside working at the sewing machine, the smell of soups and stews from the kitchen during the day, not having to go out into the cold to drive to work. Just taking each day as it comes and without any need to rush – retirement is good! 🙂
