getting back into things. Step one.
September 02, 2009
I am so ready to get back into the swing of things around here! Naps are becoming something I can depend on and I'm busy making lists already.
First, though, I need to take care of the pile of past-due projects on my sewing table.
Like the JUNE quilt square for Sarah, who asked for "whatever."
And the AUGUST square for Kate, who asked for a scrappy log cabin.
I love getting my quilt square fabric in the mail each month. It's a little like Christmas. Plus, I think you can see each of the quilters in their fabric choices. Even if these came without a nice little note attached, I'm pretty sure I could guess who sent it.
September is my month, and I've got my stacks ready to go. My plan is to get them in the mail on Friday... can you guess what kind of fabric I'm using? :)
Okay, off to the dentist. Joy.
*claps hands* yay!! I'm behind on mine - that's my task over labor day weekend. Get caught up.
glad to see you're getting some quality time during naps. good stuff.

Love both blocks... so varied but equally pretty :)

I'm gonna guess thrifted pillowcase/sheet? Those are lovely, Chris. Yay for reliable naps! Good job, ACE!

There is a season and time for everything - but a sleeping baby makes for a happy mommy at my home!
