Since I made the big statement yesterday about getting on with the Log Cabin quilt that I started last week at the Patchwork Apple I thought I had better get cracking........I stayed up late last night.........and got the cutting done so all I had to do was chain piece this morning........so got up.....and dressed in my very best stay-at-home-all-day trackies and jumper ......I bought the sewing machine out into the dining room/kitchen area (because I can - Rose doesn't complain about stuff like that...)......along with the heater.......then got right down to piecing those little suckers.......I did take a break to do a couple of loads of washing (always helps to have clothes to wear to work)....put dinner on for tonight........vacuum the floors (didn't bother to wash them as with Rose in and out and the wet weather it would have been a waste of time....)...did some ironing...caught up with a friend on the phone......and by this afternoon I had the top together.......My assistant is just checking the position of that block to make sure it's ok.......
Yep.......it's fine......good to go......
I have to admit that I didn't spend any time with alternate layouts.......and possibly there are some fabrics that shouldn't go next to each other....but I am happy with the overall look.....a couple of borders and it will be done.....I have run out of steam today though....so they will have to wait until next weekend.
'Til next time...................Lorraine
