Menu Plan Monday - March 5

-



Getting used to typing with one arm way up in the air - my fingers will certainly be stronger. Even figured out a way to sew - and made a wonderful spring quilt this weekend. Will get it pin basted today hopefully. Oh, and if you've never checked out my recipes - most are very WW friendly and include point values (thanks MC!) This weeks menu -










Wednesday - Chicken Pot Pie


Thursday - Lamb Stew


Friday - leftovers or back-up meatloaf

Design Wall Monday

I am so happy to have something to share this week.  About a month ago, I received some inspiration from another blogger on Design Wall Monday - hosted by Judy at Patchwork Times .  I immediately fell in love with the star quilt that Kate from Life in Pieces   had put together using the pattern from Country Junktion .  I knew immediately that I could use it as the center of a quilt, and finally use those garden maze blocks that were sitting in my UFO pile.  What do you think ? This is the quilt made from the BOM pattern alone This is that same quilt surrounded by my garden maze blocks I started sewing the garden maze blocks together to see how big of a border I will be needing around the star blocks.  Now to figure out if I should border around each block, or just around the outside of the stars - what do you think?

Design Floor Monday
