Full Steam Ahead

I hesitate, just a little bit, in telling you I finished the fourth block of the Merry, Merry Snowmen block of the month. The reason for my hesitation is that I was instructed recently, by one of my friends, not to complete any more applique blocks until everyone else in my stitchery group had caught up. To tell you the truth, I'm pretty sure she meant I should stop until SHE caught up. But gosh darn it, every time word gets back to me, I hear she's out golfing, antiqueing, or shopping sales. Me? I have no life, so what am I supposed to do while I'm waiting for her to catch up?

Well, one of the things I do--something that seems to get ME into trouble--is play around on the internet, looking for inspiration and new "stuff." Today's troublesome new stuff? Have you seen Bunny Hill's new pattern, Pumpkinville?

Please feel free to get into trouble along with me--Anne has listed the pattern in her Bunny Hill store HERE. She also has a wool version called Pumpkin Hollow and you can find that one HERE--just in case the first one didn't get you. Still not quite sold? The Fat Quarter Shop will be offering it as a block of the month--as I'm sure many other shops will be too.

I've ordered the Pumpkinville version and I've decided I'm going to make it using my own fabrics, so I won't sign up for the block of the month on this one. It's anyone's guess on if and when I'll get around to starting it, but when I do, I'm probably not going to go slow so my friends can keep up with me. Just sayin.
