Getting Nowhere Fast.

I've had a little lull in sewing for a quite a few days.  Just haven't felt like stitching anything.
Must be the Winter blahs!
However, I'm happy to say the feeling is returning.  Thank Goodness .
I need to get moving on the centre of my Love Entwined quilt.


SO, I cut and basted the circle of  blue triangles.  Great, I thought, I'll stitch them down.



  Not.  I then realised that I needed some green stems to go under the triangles.  OK, so bias strip cut and stems made.  Great now I'll sew.


 
Not.  Last realisation hits- need some leaves that go under the stems that go under the triangles.


Oh Dear.  Not really up there in the brain stakes at the moment!
Thankfully, I've now got all my bits done and I can start to sew.
I'm just trying to work out whether to stitch the little flowers in just like the pattern, or fussy cut these little flowers instead.

I unpicked my last joining star of my compass that many times and changed the colour far to many times to remember. finally I left the joining star wonky and I'm going to have to live with it for 2 years I work on LE not liking it but some one some day will say it has to be hand made it's not perfect LOL.
