While waiting to hear from my Tommy re x-rays' results, I went to my sewing machine for some comfort---VOILA! the 2nd Rail Fence block is born!
AND
I have decided to take a page from RANDY'S BLOG and multi task by using leftovers from the Rails to start a quilt I have always wanted to make:
from Bonnie Hunter's freebies "Scrappy Trips".
She explains that any scraps will all go together in the end--boy, this is a bright one for me!! It uses leftovers from both the rail fence blocks and also an eye poppin' green and cheddar.....WOWSERS!!!! ;--)))
Notice--I am NOT apologizing for adding TWO more quilts to my long list of UFO's....
Meanwhile:
I hear my butterflies flapping their wings in that box every time I open the closet..."Let us OUT!!"
I will have to decide what to do with them--in September...before they try to migrate to South America!! lol
AC is on and am trying not to EAT A LOT--whenever something happens,
I tend to want to eat --a WHOLE LOT--and usually none of it good for me
Ya think???!!! HELL-o chocolate...;--)))

Happy that you have two new projects - I, too, am a stress eater. Hang in there!
ReplyDeleteI recon chocolate is good for the nerves, so go for it. Hope all is well; the waiting is always the worst. I've done some lovely quilting progress too. Well done.
ReplyDeleteI am a stress eater too. I have to be careful now about what I "snack" on though. Love your scrappy trips.
ReplyDeleteTwo very GREAT quilts. The scrappy one is going to be fun. It would make a great charity quilt or perhaps a surprise for one of the little ones.
ReplyDeleteGreat blocks! And I was wondering just what to do with those leftovers from my 'rail fence' top too... 'scrappy trips' is a very good idea!
ReplyDeletesewing keeps me centered too. if my hands are busy I cant stuff my face right? LOL where theres a will theres a way........lol
ReplyDeletehope you hear good news soon. they moved mine out of icu which is a good sign.
No need to apologize for new projects here! Enjoy them :-)
ReplyDeleteI am a stress worker.. Slice those stacks and make more blocks.. works for me!!! Your rail fence block is looking great! Love those textures together. Wonderful projects in the works!
ReplyDeleteScrappy Trips is such a fun pattern--yours is going to be very cheerful. I hope the new from the hospital is good--sending hugs!
