So, I got all of Block B blocks made yesterday. I still have 8 of Block A to finish, but they are started. That's my goal for tomorrow. I started to put the rows together as I go, but somehow I ended up with fewer than the required "green" squares and had to cut more. Since I had to introduce a couple of new fabrics and I'll want to spread those out a bit in the finished top, I decided to stop sewing rows and just get those last blocks made.
HOWEVER, (Isn't there always a "however"???), Savannah's room has just gotten to be so messy. I actually was spurred on to gut out her room after watching an episode of "Hoarders: Buried Alive" last night while I was stitching. I decided to threaten to take all of her belongings (less the essentials for life!) and box them all up. I figured that she might be willing to part with more things if she got a taste of what it could be like with wayyyyyyy less junk in her room. When I threatened it, she asked if I would PLEASE do it!! So, we have been boxing and bagging junk... sorting through her dresser and closet.... Just plain gutting that room out. It looks so much better!
I'll share pics of my mystery tomorrow. Remember, you are welcome to come and sew in the afternoon if you are able to! It might be a good idea to call/text/blog that you are planning to come so I can try to get spaces ready for you. I don't really have any extra tables, but I could go to Mom's and get some.... Or you could bring a table if you are coming? Whatever the case, please feel welcome to come and stitch away with me!
Would love to, but I have studies this afternoon.
ReplyDeleteThats what happened to me and I had to make another star block, I was shy one. When you watch horders, somehow it just makes you feel good about your own hording addictions! :o}
