Here's yesterday's photos revealed!
And here are today's puzzles
Pictures I got back!
Feel free to play along!
Meanwhile, I cleaned out the spice cupboard - what a mess. We use the table grinder for pepper and it leaks pepper everywhere! I had spices from 16 years ago?? AND 3 jars of bay leaves!! I use 1 leaf, maybe every year! DH had a close encounter with one of those years ago - still not a fan!
Today is the kitchen junk drawer!!
In the sewing room - I finally started working on my quarantine challenge for ModSquad. Had to switch things around already, but I'm liking the way it's going! It's all hush-hush of course, but I see possibilities galore! It's exciting ... or maybe I'm just a little cabin-fevered!
I sewed my second block of Plus blocks. I know it's too soon to get bogged down, but this doesn't feel like it will. Working out of my charms bin - oh, yea! I have THAT many! I used to coordinate the charm exchange in the Lincoln guild. We exchanged for 3(?) years! And I always cut extra fabric, to get a good number of exchanges available each month. And there are other scraps, just right for cutting 2 1/2 inch squares.
Back when I was actively cutting scraps - Bonnie Hunter style - I always cut 5" squares if the fabric was big enough. On my 'waiting list' is a Nickel Quilt King's Crown UFO that is started. That block is set on the diagonal, so the start is a corner to encourage nickel use. Hope I can keep this enthusiasm going when we can finally wander about in normal life!!
Tomorrow I'll show you my 'scraps storage' it's not perfect, but I can rake it back into the categories at the end of the day! And yes, sometimes a rake would come in handy.
Presenting block 2
Stay safe and QUILT ON!
