We even had it... S N O W!!!! I was not happy to see these little babies on the porch and the little white things flying in the air.
So what's a girl to do???
Stay inside and quilt! I purchased Judy Laquidara's book Nine Patch Extravaganza several years ago and even bought the fabric to make her quilt called Heat Wave. I decided to finally pull it out and get to work!
I have similar colors to Judy's original quilt and started cutting up all the pieces I needed.
My "OCD" factor is coming up high on this one while I was cutting things out. LOL
And all the pieces cut for the center portion of the quilt and the non-pieced borders. All neatly lined up and ready to go. Sometimes when I stack this stuff up, it makes me not want to do anything more so I can keep it in the nice and neat little piles. Thankfully, that feeling doesn't last too long!
I have about 20 of the 80 flying geese blocks made so far for this quilt. There are a lot of bonus HSTs as part of making those flying geese, so i'll have to figure out something to do with the tan and gold-ish HSTs.
Happy Crafting!

I like getting all the pieces cut for a quilt sometimes too and stacking them up nice and neat so I know where every thing is.
ReplyDeleteWhen it gets chilly here the heat comes on - I do not care what time of the year it is or how early in fall that happens - if the house goes below 68 the heat comes on and it has been on since we got home on Friday - our house is very shaded at this time of year and stays chilly from fall to mid-spring it seems.
