Sunday .. really .... already?

I have had my nose in my Kindle for the last couple of days. 
Unable to put it down.
Just reading  ... I love to read a good book :)

So I have no Bottled Rainbow Quilt block to share.
I have looked at it but the inspiration didn't hit.

I have had a BIG clean up of my sewing space though and with that
some inspiration to make a dent in a UFO.

Once Upon a Time

It wasn't that long ago that I traced and assembled the last two blocks.
They are still sitting here, unattended to BUT so far today
I have managed to get the other blocks out,
Ironed them
placed them on the design wall
I am planning to start cutting the sashing strips and corner stones today.
Maybe do some stitching tonight whilst the Block finale is on.

Also, with the last block there was also a bonus block 
and being I have enough fabrics left over I thought that
 I might make it up and into a cushion.

My original plan for this quilt was to have it in 
Miss Lily's bedroom, over a reading chair.

Still achievable. 
Lets see how far I get today and bear in mind it is already 3pm here
 and I am itching to get back to my Kindle!

  3. Choosing what to do can be a real dilemma. Some days the sewing just doesn't happen.
