She's taking shape..

and coming along nicely...

I decided to work on the hardest blocks first...so the double and triple colors one's are done. That's her halo above....with her wings and her red dress. The brown blocks on the sides of her dress will have one last red strip to make the dress a bit wider, but after that it's all brown and applique. I leaning towards doing the applique on the machine with black buttonhole stitch to save my arm which is getting worse.

After 160 flying geese done with freezer paper piecing and cutting tons of strips for this...way too many mind you...I'm having to chose between using the limited use time for sewing or computer time. Sorry but in that scenario, the computer loses out every time. I'll be around and posting BIG updates or finishes. I'll read when I can but comments may fall by the wayside for a while, as will thank you emails for comments left here, sorry. I'm not ignoring you, but I've got to get this under control.
