with 20 minutes to spare...

i almost missed today...  just 20 minutes left in the day as i start typing this... nope, now 19.

this weekend i was busy on a item that has been on the TO DO list for a LONG time

My amazing sister Becky's buggy barn blocks.  forever ago she signed up for a block of the month with the buggy barn and when we were at our annual cabin trip (seriously click on those links, there are three, you won't be sorry) two years ago she brought all of the packages with her.  i snuck home with a couple of them with the grand intentions of stitching them up for her real quick...  two years later... totally finished.  i am super quick fast!  although, in my defense i did get pregnant and have a baby in those two years...

15 minutes left...

and here are the first three blocks...

lovely right...

9 minutes...

this little guy measures 6 inches and i just love it.
i think i might finally be getting the farmers wife fever after finishing this block...
the second group of these blocks will be available for your viewing pleasure tomorrow...
which will be in exactly 7 minutes...
tomorrow that is... ;)

  1. What the heck is buggy barn and how can I get some?! That large block in the back is calling out my name! The suspense will kill me!

  2. 2 years? That's about how long it takes me to finish projects too :)

  3. You crack me up, Nicke. Lovely block! I've thought about doing Farmer's Wife, but I just can't commit to that, at the moment!
