The curse of the Splendid Sampler

Having slept well last night, only to awake thinking of devious calculations that needed to be done to address the block disaster of yesterday, I made a bee line for the craft room and added a red border to my block.  I even then embroidered onto  the border to make it look like it was meant to be.  I stood back and admired it!  Then I moved onto block 5 - only to unpick when one piece was cut half an inch too big!  Nevertheless I ironed all five and took a photo for the blog - only then realising that my new red border was now too big and the block would need cutting down again - grrrrr!



Otherwise today has been one of tidying up the shreds of cardboard that Daisy leaves in her wake, hovering and rearranging rugs - that Daisy persists in moving for me - and generally sorting out Daisy's chaos!  As I put onto Facebook last night, Daisy has now learnt how to jump onto the sofa so things can only go one way!






This afternoon was the craft group followed by a lengthy PCC meeting - finishing just before 6pm hence the lateness of this post.  We only meet 4 / 5 times a year so meetings tend to be long in order to cover all the decisions that need to be made - thank goodness I had those figures to hand!  Unusually for me I even proposed to spend some serious money - I must be going soft in my old age!
