Back in the Groove...

After having a major brain fart, I think I have gotten back into the groove. I wanted to makes this bag that I saw at the shop. Saturday afternoon I could not figure out the directions. I made drawings and thought and thought and still screwed it up. Had to make a trip over to the shop and of course the fabric that I cut out was already gone. But the substitue is not bad. It was really easy once they explained it! Note to self, never read " read all directions first". The bag is nice although I do not know what I will do with it!

I needed to get back on track with the Orange Crush mystery quilt. Since I had had another brain fart with the cutting on step 2, I decided to proceed with step 4. I now am almost finished with step 4. I have 14 more blocks to sew-just the rows-the rows are already constructed. I also began cutting step 2. I have the larger half square triangles all cut as well as the 2 inch squares. I have to complete cutting the smaller triangles. There are 284 of these bad boys needed for this step! I did make one one the blocks and now I know what I am doing! Maybe I am not losing my mind afterall....

Now it is back to work. I am going to go to the Grayson guild meeting tonight
