    I'm so happy it's finally here!. I'm working on a quilt, and hope to get most of the rows sewn today. In addition, I'm 3 months behind on a paper-pieced block of the month. I have no expectations that I can catch up completely, but I'd at least like to get 1 month done. That should be enough to keep me busy and prevent me from starting the new quilt I'm sitting here looking at, in front of my computer First things first, I need to finish something.

    If I get tired of being in my sewing room, I'll assemble a backing and load a quilt on my long arm.

    Here's the in-progress quilt I'm assembling.

    Wow, I just got up. It is 5:45am here on the west coast. After I wake up, have coffee, feed the dogs and get dressed, I am going to work on a Cindy Carter One Day Mystery that is going on today. Between clues I will be working on my B&W dresden. Good luck everyone.

    I hope to finnish putting together three more Ohio Star blocks for a side swap and then cut three more and hopefully put those together. I need to update my boomerang list and take pictures of blocks. Package atleast 3 blocks and get them ready to send. One of my little guys will have his family birthday party today after church and some of my married children will also come for lunch.

    I have been debating, but saw this post and said....Why Not...I need to resew my train quilt..I was so made at my self last week when I sew one of the rows backwards and noticed once top was done...then I noticed my applique was coming off. 1. disappointed that the 506 spray did not hold it down..2. my stitches were not far enough in and 3. I forgot to change my needle from jean to regular red needle...it really made me not want to sew for a bit...but now to get at it again. I will finish the rows and then begin a christmas rag quilt for fun.

    Hoping to work on my RR quilt and possibly finish clues 2 and 3 on my knit-a-long on Ravelry. I really would like to work on my Alzheimers quilt. But I think the Christmas presents will win out before I start that. Of course, all this is dependent on what the hubby has planned. Oh, and also how good the puppies are.

    Just enjoying 1st coffee at 6:30 here & will work on quilting a scrappy heart quilt today. I only have a picture of the 1 block but have 9 together in the top. I didn't have a pattern but someone had posted their block awhile back & I really liked it. They are all 2" scrap squares. [ATTACH=CONFIG]364843[/ATTACH] Look forward to seeing what others are working on throughout the day!
