Since September is winding down I thought I'd better START the Noah's Ark for September. I have been procrastinating about doing this because I lost the August block sometime in early August. I looked everywhere, in the thread drawer, between pages of patchwork books that I'd been looking through, under the sofa, behind the piano. Ah well, should I just make the August block again or move on to the September block? Move on. You have a few more months to find the August block.
Yesterday I sat down and pulled out my thread box and what do you think dropped out? Yes! The August block, Noah, giraffes, kitty cat and all (I had been so happy to find a kitty amongst Noah's menagerie!) Now I had looked in that thread box a couple of times... why I didn't see it I don't know...
For the rest of the afternoon I stitched the rainbow for September and then finished the last stitches on Noah and the cat and now I'm caught up again with
Lynette's stitchery! Just in time for another block that will probably be posted tomorrow or the day after.

Oh my! I'm still on my Noah block. I'd better get busy!
They are beautiful, Tanya. I need to get to work on mine, too. I am WAY behind at this point. I need to do the rainbow, which isn't even started yet. I have a bit of finishing to do on Noah, all those french knots in his beard have been a challenge for me. I also need to redo the block with the cows because I spilled something on mine. YIKS! I better get going, I'm behinder than I thought!
I'm so glad you found your block Tanya, it's so frustrating to have something mislaid for that length of time. I still haven't found my Christmas book and fabric that I must have tidied away somewhere, if it doesn't turn up soon it's going to be a next year project!
They're adorable. My friend has a theory that when we're looking for misplaced items and they don't come to the surface it just isn't time for us to find them yet... this must have been what happened here. I can't wait to see this little treasure all together.
I'm glad you found it Tanya, everything looks great. I am still avoiding stitchery because I am afraid it is going to become yet another addiction.
The lost block is found! Yeah! I just hate it when I am looking and looking for something only to find it in a place that I had looked in at the beginning of the search. Ugh!
Well done. I am too scared to look on Lynettes blog in case she has posted the next block, I am SO far behind!!
