UFO and QAL updates

There's really not a lot to report... I've been working on both the UFO for this month ( Vintage Tin) and the QAL with crazymomquilts?
I didn't get the latest block for Vintage Tin traced out until Monday but I started right in on the embroidery and got a little bit done that night.  Tuesday night, I did a little more...

By the end of Wednesday night, I was able to say that it's half done.

Last night, I continued ...

and I only have this much left to do.

Hubby has an appointment with his cardiologist and then is scheduled for a CT scan this afternoon and I'm going to 'bite the bullet' ( I don't like taking things like this out of the house for fear of losing) and take it with me to work on while I wait.

Yesterday, I also finished the string blocks for the QAL.. infact, I have one extra.  I got all the papers removed from the backs but haven't started cutting the inner blocks because I wanted to add the two more blocks to the charity quilt that's hanging on my design wall first.

 Problem is, now I can't find the pattern!!!  I've started cleaning my sewing room in hopes that it will show up.. it can't have gone that far; I was just using it!

Hubby's yelling "ready to go?"  ( the appointment isn't until 1:15 and we don't need to leave for at least 10 minutes) so I guess I'd better end this now.

Footnote:  It's now almost 11 pm... I finished the embroidery on the current block a few minutes ago... AND I found the MIA pattern.  After all the scouring and searching I did yesterday to no avail; today, I walk into the room this afternoon and there the pattern is - peaking out from underneath another pattern behind my sewing machine.  I started piecing, but had to quit when I realized that I'd given myself food poisoning this afternoon when I ate some REALLY OLD tortilla chips.
