Pathetic......

YEP.....that would be ME!.....PATHETIC..... in a LOT of areas! I can't believe how long it has been since I blogged.....WOW, has it really been 4 months already??? Well, I HAVE done a FEW things in all this time I have been off. The only way I know to catch up IS to just START CATCHING UP with some photos of what has been going here at BROWN DIRT COTTAGE! I will start with the BLOCK LOTTO blocks I have made. Above photo are OCTOBER blocks.
NOVEMBER BLOCK LOTTO


MARCH BLOCK LOTTO


Even GOOBER...THE DOG is showing signs of PATHETICNESS {is that even a word}? Look at him...lounging....in the sun...all warm and cozy....a crunchy orange snack not far from reach. I guess like 'owner'...like 'dog'!!! COME ON GOOBER.....we MUST snap out of it and GET BACK into the GROOVE!!!!

I promise to share more 'CATCH UP' photos in the coming days! I have missed EVERYONE....have you missed ME????

    Yep, you've been missed. Great blocks! Goober doesn't look pathetic - he just looks very, very contented soaking up the sun :)

    I haven't missed you since I just 'met' you, but I sure do like your blocks! I also know the feeling of being pathetic! These things eventually pass...

    Yes, I know you just needed a break, it's a lot of time blogging, especially when blogger doesn't behave, like today! You are still on my fav list, so I look forward to seeing your renovated sewing room and some things that you have been working on, Happy Spring!

    Hi! You have been having a great time with all those block lottos! I love the red and white ones from March! That goes really well with the red and white quilt show that was held in NYC this last week.

    I can't believe it has been 4 months...I have been popping in using your blog list for places to visit and it was like no one was home. Then today things were different, the lights were on, someone had been here...blogging!
    I LOVE those pink and green trees!
    ALL the blocks shown here are lovable!!

    Like heck, that's how I missed you! Thanks for coming back just when I was despairing that all I would ever get was new blog header photos to look at!!!!

    Great scrappy fun you've been creating there, Belinda :) Even Goober's coat looks pretty scrappy!

    Not pathetic! If you're pathetic I am too. I've been horribly out of the loop. Oh well. I was just sitting here feeling sorry for my sad state of google reader and how out of the loop I am. And then I thought - so what! haha

    Welcome back! I love the first quilt you show. I had never though of using string blocks to set off pieced blocks like that - sure makes for a lovely design.
