Stay at home round robin next row, two colors

 


it's too much this year, adding in a row each week is frantic to me.... 

we brought this lovely boy into our home on Sunday... a  one and a half year old standard rescue.... 
today he was perfect, he's been here 8 days and perfect. 

This evening I ran up to make a block for the SAHRR... I had wanted ,and pulled fabric, to make two color 4 patches.  One would go above, one below the center...

I couldn't kick into design work this week. Then tonight, 
In my rush to make something, and exhausted, I decided one block with a circle. 
I gut two circles out to put on the background

LOVELY! exciting! 
then  I realized the prompt is 2 colors, not two fabrics... 
oh my heck
and while I was upstairs making something two color to add in, hurting my shoulder, my new dog who doesn't know how to ask to go out, peed on the LR carpet. 
God Bless Him, He was with dh when it happened and I'm the one who usually notices him getting frantic.... 
anyway.... we are finding the experience a very real but worthy challenge. Dewi has brought love back to my life, and laughter, so this is more our fault but we are very tired.... 
I betcha when I sew the whole quilt together in the end, this block will get another applique of a lily

or the two other circles will join the party.... at that point I've met the challenges, but have to make the quilt that's in my mind also.... so for now, finally at 8pm dinner, rest my eyes, pet my puppy and remember my life includes more than creativity even though sometimes it takes over! lol   
mama, put down the fabric and come pet me now

Dewi and his humans just have to get used to each other and get in the swing of things and then all will be well!
