On my lunch hours at work I stitched all 10 of my Klosjes I prepped last weekend. I also prepped another 10 to do this week. This is the perfect portable project for work. I think that next weekend I will prep a "Dear Jane" block and see how that goes. If I get the knack of this hand stitching thing maybe my Jane will get finished.
I also finished my first "Kitchen Capers" BOM. I was going to add the other elements to it but I noticed that I didn't have enough of a variety of fabrics. I am going to wait until I receive all packs and then put the other elements of the block together.
That's all I have for the week. :( I sure hope I have more time next weekend. This work thing just isn't helping me. LOL! I really thought the city of Los Angeles should have taken a "snow day" to sympathize for all of our brothers and sisters on the east coast.

The kitchen capers is so cute. Well, I don't know about a snow day in LA but I have a friend in FL and she took a sun day.
Love your blocks. I'm partial to Civil War reproduction fabrics. Your embroidered block is darling.
love the embroidery!

greAT projects Yvette. sorry you could not get everything you wanted done, but looks like you did well.
Looks like you made some pretty good progress to me! Just you talking about all the HSTs in CWT make me shudder! That's still a UFO at my house! :-)
"Kitchen Capers" is really sweet - a girlfriend made it last year and it's lovely. Great idea making the klosjes in your lunch break.
Always fun to check on your completions for the week. Kitchen Capers is adorable.
That is all for this week!!! LOL. And, look at you go with the hand stitching!
Love those klosjes! That Kitchen Capers is too cute! Can't wait to see more of it!
I want way more time in my sewing room this week! This week is going to be better. This week is going to be better. I'm hoping chanting it, will make it sew. :)
Wow! You got so much done on many things! I am really enjoying your progress on the Klosjes! This kind of project is what quilting is all about, and I love how you just plug along at it!
In stitches,
Teresa :o)
Isn't it awful that work has to interfere with our sewing time? I'm sorry but you don't get a snow day until I get a snow day and we have around 40"s on the ground!!!! LOL
Crispy
Guess what??? We are supposed to have another blizzard on Wednesday! I wish you could be here to enjoy it with me! :)
Your Klosjes are looking good, another project I should get back to..uggg
Oh and I really like the Kitchen Capers block....cauuute!
Have a good week!
Your spools are looking great! And your stitchery is so cute! :0)
The Kitchen Capers block is so cute! I'll have to go check out that quilt. And good job on your Klosjes!
A "bust" for you is wildly productive compared to me. You should definitely be proud of all you manage to accomplish, even in an "off" week. :)
Your CW blocks are just darling and I love the Kitchen Capers, so adorable. You always pick the cutest stitchery patterns. I hope you get more time to play this coming weekend.
I agree you should have a snow day too. :D
such another cute little embroidery you are working on.
The kitchen capers block is very cute! Yes...our peddler's market was at Piecemakers in Costa Mesa...we are going to try a couple more of their craft fairs this year too!
Lots of lovely things at Yvette's place! Really love the Civil War blocks.
I love your kitchen block. I'm sending out the next one today. I think it already went out today. lol
Isn't it cute???
Your so busy over there with all kinds of projects. Do you ever rest?
