Opening your eyes to more of the world around you can deeply enhance your gratitude.
This was in Rocky Mountain National Park, after a great hike - and those are my husbands feet, He was threatening to throw me in so I took out my camera so he would remember he didn't want to replace it.
I got a wild idea... I have a scrap box at the side of my sewing table. For some reason I decided it was time to sort it. I think It might have had to do with the fact that my husband wanted to move some panels.... and I didn't want to - so I had to look busy.
I found enough Greens or greenish looking fabrics to make 14 - 8 1/2 inch crumb blocks!!
and then I saw a stack of things in a cubby. Note to self - NEVER LOOK IN THE CUBBY!
I have more orphan blocks...
Happy Monday!

Pretty crumb blocks. LOL at having "to look busy" so you don't have to move panels! Even though I haven't left comments, I have really enjoyed your gratitude series here and on IG.
I think you are busy most of the time so down time is allowed! The new greens look great in the blocks!
The story that goes with the photo makes the photo even nicer. Ooh, you made good use of those scraps and even better got out of the panel moving gig.
Those are so pretty, Alycia! I love what you can do with crumb pieces, and it's such great relaxing sewing. Beautiful Rocky Mountain National Park - definitely a place to be thankful for!
I like your crumb blocks and I laughed over your don't look in the cubby! Amazing where orphan blocks accumulate. . .er. . .hide. . .er. . .hang out!
I like your tactics....for saving yourself from being thrown in and escaping moving panels. Your crumb blocks are fun. I am trying to institute a clean work space so I can dive in to fun little projects...we will see! Gratitude month is quite wonderful on your blog.
Love your crumb blocks: such a relaxing easy color. I like how you carried some of the fabrics to many of the blocks.
Something cool is going to come out of all of that!
