Farm Block Five

Jars1
Canning Jars (6 1/2" square block, unfinished)

This one really tried my patience and got on my next to last nerve. The smallest pieces that I dealt with in the block were 3/4" squares--12 of them. If the pieces get any smaller, I might have to make a smaller quilt. I'll never make it through 43 more blocks.

Some time during the night last night, I was visited by a bug. I am now battling cold symptoms--sneezing, coughing, stuffy nose, watery eyes, yukky feeling. I'm taking cold meds, but so far to no discernible effect.

I love this block. At first glance, I thought they were ladybugs.

Well done on persevering thru the process of dealing with the tiny pieces! Love the canning jars, but you're right: a 6" block is just too small for two rows of jars. If you choose to make a smaller quilt, do so and be happy with your choice. There are no quilt police. :)

Hope your unwelcome cold symptoms will be short lived and that chicken soup, hot tea, extra sleep, and perhaps Thera-flu will help make your days with this bug less miserable.

Hugs!
