Let's Book it , a flimsy and some fun mail

Bet you are surprised to see me back here so quickly . Well I remembered this is the end of august and time to report on my Let's book it project . I had been a little slack in reporting on this the last while but I have made progress . For today is will share the block I completed this month .

 Kind of a dark photo , we have had some dull days lately although today is gorgeous . The one I completed has the little circles applique around it . Almost time to start sewing the blocks together 😊 Thanks to Sharon for keeping us on track each month to use those books and patterns we have sitting on our shelves.
 Next I'd like to share some special mail I received a few days back , a sweet summery postcard from Selina,  thanks so much Selina,  I love it .

Isn't it cute ☺
I am determined to finish up some ufos so this week I have managed to complete the second Frozen quilt top,  this one will go to my granddaughter Elise.  Sophia loves hers which makes me happy. 

It looks pretty much the same as the first one with the exception that i didn't piece her name into the border.  I did cut out letters to applique them on but now I am not so sure I want them on , will contemplate for a while before I decide . 
Today I am working on the braid border for the mystery quilt I started quite some time ago with Kaaren Johnston of the Painted Quilt . I love this quilt so was feeling bad that it has been sitting for so long . I have the braids made now so time to stitch them on so off I go to do just that .
 Thanks for stopping by today , hope you are enjoying your day .
 Hugs Sheila
