Pot 4 Dickie update and a few quilt projects.

I have made a little progress on Pot 4 Dickie but I missed finishing it by my birthday since it has come and gone. I am going to try to get it done before I head up to NC for my niece Kelli's wedding in April. She and JD eloped when she came home from overseas and now they are having a wedding so Richard can walk her down the aisle. 
 On the left is what Pot 4 looked like on 1/1/15 and the right is today 1/29/15. I added two rows of stitching under the birds and started on the next row of flowers.
I love to learn new things so when my FB group started posting about making paper piecing blocks that are only 3 1/2 inches big I had to try it. They are called Wild and Goosey, so I have to say I was goosed.  Here are the two blocks I did using my scraps. I may try more but I have a wedding quilt to piece and quilt. I am going to make a French Braid Quilt for Kelli and JD.
 I can post it here because I know they don't look at this blog. On the design wall I have one braid sewn together and the other three ready to sew. So far I am enjoying this pattern, it's the first time I have tried one of these but it won't be the last. I will keep you all posted on my progress. 


Happy Stitching All.
