Do you have Cabin fever? I do have making these darling blocks with a log cabin in the middle!
We might have Cabin fever in more than one sense! I'm anxious to get out in the garden but April keeps going back and forth with the cold and warm, and rain, rain... rain... rain.. I know I will stop soon and be lovely, but... I'm not patient!
In my podcast today (watch below) I tell you about my 'work station' set up today and creating a habit, curious if you are like me?
*** Serendipity Charity Sew along Week 3 ***
I talk about 'NOT' cutting off our points today, and show you the back of the block in my podcast today, for those of who LOVE seeing backs of blocks... you know who you are, wink wink!
At the end are all the links for downloads and the videos the Fat Quarter shop is doing for the Charity sew along

Our Serendipity Quilt and Cross Stitch Chart will benefit Make-a-Wish Central & South Texas. Every twice a month the fat quarter shop puts out the next pattern for this gorgeous row by row quilt.
We ask that you make a donation for each pattern or make a lump sum. The Fat Quarter Shop with your help has been donating each year and making a difference in Children's lives.
- I'm making mine in my Morrison Park fabric (https://shrsl.com/2jbrq ) which will be auctioned for Make A Wish.
- Be sure to watch my video
- Share a photo of your blocks at the end
