Making progress...

This is the little pile of left overs from Margaret's blocks from yesterday.  Now if you know V over at Bumble Beans, you know she is on a mission to get everyone to play for just 15 minutes.  So that's what I did!

I spend a little longer than 15 minutes and made this ...

and what I found was that these little blocks are really quite addictive!

So because I really needed to get on and achieve something more, I managed to do a little more catching up with Bees Knees Bee blocks for Jessica. 

Remind you of anything? 

So whilst I was piecing the scrap blocks and the Bee block for Jessica, I was using my Half Square Triangles as leaders and enders, and I made real progress on them, don't you think?

And because my chiropodist was here yesterday, we went for a little retail therapy... Wait...  I must warn you, there was no fabric involved!   LOL  Remember, I'm on a Pinkie Promise NOT to buy anymore until after 15 Aug (2 months)

Ready?

These weren't quite what I went for, but they are so me! 

So that concludes my weekend activities, and I achieved quite a lot, considering there has been a draught of activity lately.  I'm hoping the momentum will continue....

and it's only another week of school until the holidays start here!  Oh, I'm so ready for a break!

Happy Quilting

Finding my MoJo!

That elusive mojo has been missing ...  (not even in action!)  But this weekend I'm planning a little catch up, and plan to finish a few outstanding things that should have been long done!

So this is the plan...

Bees Knees bee blocks for Margaret, I must get these done if nothing else this weekend.  If you want to see the other blocks I have to finish up check out our blog, there's a button on the side bars

And how hard can it be to get 2 borders added to this top, that's all it needs.  One of them is even cut ready! 

And I started the Old Red Barn Quilt Along for the Pinwheels quilt, I have all my half square triangle made, they just need a little chivvy too, pressing is a must today.  That will at least move this project on a bit.

Speaking of ORB, they are now doing the Asterisks quilt along, and I have all my squares cut, all my strips ready, again, I just need to move it along a bit.

Did I tell you I have several commissions on the go.  Well, I'd get on much better with them if I could just get this little quilt off the frame....

So I can get these two quilt tops loaded and quilted.  Surely that's not too much to ask of myself.... is it?

And that just leaves a little C&G work.  Turn this landscape into a paper collage...

It's a start with the tracing paper as a template.   I'll get back to you later and let you know how I get on today.

Catch ya later!!
