Shores Block Five and a Surprise!

Thank you all for your very kind comments on Paradise Lost! They really mean so much to me. And I do love "The Flood," but think I need a break from starting anything too big right now. Once I get Shores finished I plan to work on some smaller things for awhile. :)

Anyway, here is my progress on block five...

And the surprise came in the mail today.

  17. Moving right along with your Shores!

    I've decided to stitch ornaments throughout the year so there can be completions along the way.

  21. Block 5 is looking great! YGG! I hear you on wanting to do smaller things for a bit. Knowing you, though, that resolve will last about a week! ;) I'm teasing you only because I am the same way myself!

    Wonderful gift from Karen!
