What a mess


 My work table is so messy! Projects on the table are the cupola views quilt, a skirt I want to add a welted pocket to, a scarf that needs a bit of mending, shop hop blocks that I am reformatting the colors, a matching panel that I tea-dyed so it would match my new colors better, all of the dies I'm using for the shop hop blocks, my Accuquilt go, rotary cutter, scissors, two packs of finishing kit materials for the Saturday Sampler, clipboard with patterns and, not visible here, a jar of m&ms.

Progress is being made but this is just about to send me over the edge.  After I get the blocks finished I can tidy up a bit.



Here are my plans:

  1. finish shop hop blocks
  2. tidy away dies/diecutter
  3. tidy away completed patterns
  4. mend scarf
  5. add pocket to skirt
  6. get back to Cupola Views
  7. get started on finishing kits

I've got a laundry basket full of fabric that needs to be washed-mostly Jo Morton! I'm cutting up DH's old jeans for a raggedy quilt so I have many pairs of those lying around-and one pair to be mended. Mustn't confuse those!

I spent much of Sunday afternoon reorganizing and washing fabric. I really need to move out all of my spinning stuff out. I haven't been doing it much since I had the boyos and those tubs of wool take up a lot of space. Why on earth do I have so much? I remember that one tub is full of samples of wool from all different kinds of sheep. I should go ahead and finish that sample notebook so I can enjoy it!

It's amazing what you can do when you have a clear table!  These are some blocks for the Saturday Sampler at my LQS. I really like the ...
