just quick!

Started two new quilts.

A cot quilt, set on point, made with a forgotten Sugar Pop charm square set from whenever. June maybe? Who knows. So sweet and cute!

Very unfinished though. Tomorrow: cutting out the setting triangles and sorting the borders and the backing. Should be fun!

Quilt #2: a quilt for my mother, which a) has roses and b) is more traditional. I chose a tulip block from the ever fabulous Quilters' Cache and pulled the rose fabric out of my stash. I ran up to Cottage Quiltworks for matching maroon and green fabric and dug some creamy homespun out of my rainbow of solids. Hooray for utilizing my exisiting fabric first! Anyway this is the block.

And now, word count for today: 3980. SHOCKING. Terrible. I'm spending tomorrow morning in the café writing with my headphones on. If I don't get to 7000 tomorrow I'm going to have to stay up late. I mean later. Or maybe take my sewing machine in to be serviced so I won't be tempted to sew when I should be WRITING.

Also, ALSO! Tomorrow, I plan on walking to the gym and signing myself up! I've got a three month old baby and I'm starting to feel really ready to shed some baby weight and get pretty for summer! I know I've left it a bit late, but hey, better late than never! Plus, one word: sundresses. There. Sold.
