I don't like it

I didn't even finish the block. I knew at this point that I wouldn't like it at all. It just will not work with these fabrics. Also, while I absolutely love Elizabeth Hartman patterns, I don't love this one. It's not nearly as much fun as Penguin Party, Puppy or Fab Farm. I'll just have to peruse the patterns for another idea.

Aside from a few wasted hours on this block, I added a couple of rows to the crochet poncho and I did my 6th truckload of mulch. 

Because I don't have anything else to share, here are a few photos of my mulching project. I started at the road and am working toward the house. It will look really pretty when the weeds turn green again.
​

This is the bed I finished yesterday. It took a truckload and a half. You can't really see it here, but there are daffodils coming up on both sides of this bed and there are lots of irises in the back. This year we might plant some things under the holly to try to fill this in some.
​

I started in this bed yesterday  and will add another load today. It will take two loads to finish. Here's where we planted the hydrangeas, rhododendrons, and Lenten Roses last fall after we cut the lower 6 feet of branches off the cedar tree on the left.  After this I have a magnolia tree that you can see in the distance, a single sycamore tree and then I can do around the buildings. I'm just a little over halfway done. 
I case you are wondering, I do actually enjoy doing this. I put on my headphones and listen to a book while I get some very good exercise. It takes me about 2 hours to unload and spread one full load of mulch. One truckload (2 scoops) costs about $60. I'll try to get another done today but there's going to be a lot going on with the house project wrapping up. It's also quilt club meeting tonight and I need to get 3 bags of veterans quilts ready for delivery.
