Update

I started out on a high note today and have been progressing downwards at an alarming rate. Why is it that whenever I proclaim it to be a quilting day, interruptions come from all directions? I have gotten a little accomplished, but not nearly as much as had hoped. And I'm at a standstill for now, as there are a bunch of kids hanging with my son down near my sewing space. Oh well, there is always tomorrow. I did get the strip quilt top done. I really like how this one turned out. It has a happy feeling, I think.

Plus, I got all my half-square triangles made and trimmed for the next border on the bear paw top. Now I am changing gears and will work on a little hand applique. It wasn't a priority for today, but it needs to be done and I can do that away from the noise of the kids.

Looks like you did good managing to get a few things done. I had the same experience yesterday - had such big plans, and then ended up with three grandkids here. But God love them, they won't be so cute and little much longer and I will yearn to have these days back. In the meantime, I'll just keep squeezing in a stitch now and then.

That dotted aqua fabric is so cute and just the think to finish the little quilt off.
