Succumbed to the Squirrel


There's only so much sorting of scrap bins that one person can do without getting BORED... well, at least that's the case for me.  I've sorted out my blue scrap bin then my yellow/orange/gold one.

The result was listening to the 'squirrel'... there was a magazine open to a pattern that I thought... "Great! I can make this quilt and use up some more of the scraps"... and it did use SOME plus some yardage from my stash.
  I was so focused on making the blocks and then the sashing and borders that I failed to notice that I was supposed to use the border fabric for wide sashing along with the black w/ white dots.  It finished out at about 40"x 40" so still a good size for a baby quilt. -- In my defense I was also listening to/watching Last Tango in Halifax on Netflix.  

I'm happy with it.  Now, I need to make the binding and label before I fold it up so I can hang it on a hanger for my waiting in line rack.

Tomorrow, MAYBE I'll feel up to finishing the quilt that's been on Mo'e for two weeks.  I THINK I have an idea for the final Project Quilting challenge and I'll need to use Mo'e to finish it....

that's it for tonight...
take care....
ttyl....
STAY SAFE!
