So here is another "Be Attitudes" block.
Then I just could not help myself, I just love these frogs (from quilt in previous post) and so I had to put it on one of the towels my sister sent.
Nothing planned for today.....it seems the blanket stitch has become my filler when I don't feel like doing much....
Have a wonderful week-end, I so enjoyed your comments on threads.
By the way, I decided not to use stabilizer on these blocks. Maybe if I was doing a show piece I would but not for something such as this. I find it works just fine wihtout it....or just call me lazy...
.but I am happy and today it is all about me!! If momma is happy, we all are happy!"

I love your Be Attitude block. I need to pull fabrics for mine. Did your sister send the frog. He is too cute. Have a great weekend.
I gave up on hand doing blanket stitch. I use my machine other wise I'd do nothing with that stitch. Bad for me, as hand stitched does look so nice with those tiny variations.
What a great block Barb.....but the frog towel is my favorite! He rocks......
I love blanket stitch, doing it by hand (especially on felted wool - yum) and by machine. My old Bernina has a triple blanket stitch that looks handmade that I LOVE using. Your blanket stitches are exquisite, of course!
Happy stitching,

You Be Attitude block is wonderful. I have that quilt on my 'to do' list. The frog is adorable!
Your frogs are so cute. I am sewing up a storm today. It is so nice to have a day to sew.
Love your frog!!!
Glad to hear you are so happy! I love to use the button hole stitch when I am stitching by hand. I need lots more practice doing it with the sewing machine though.
Playing catch up, Barb... Those Be Attitude blocks are so cute! And I WAS wondering if you were using stabilizer. Off to look at the previous post to see the frogs. Have a good weekend, too....Karen
Cute, cute, cute.
Barb, as long as it doesn't scush up, who needs stabilizer.
Another great "Be Attitude" block and a cute towel with the frog addition.
I was about to ask about stabilizer when you wrote it... interesting... they look great without so i'm going to try... I was always told to use it...

Absolutely adorable. Glad you are happy! Happy is a good thing.

Your frog is a cutie-pie for sure!
Great work, Barb. I call myself a dyslexic blanket stitcher because my stitches always point in the opposite direction. Think I may need more practice!
I like the "be" blocks. I've got the patterns too...on my list to do!
I think the blanket stitch is so pretty yet traditional. Your block is very nice is it one from Art to Heart? Looked like her style. The frog is super cute.
