Slowdown Sunday

Slowdown Sunday...! when I feel so energized for accomplishing my deadline last night at midnight, all 600 2" hst's for the RRCB are completed. But I was quietly doing the happy dance in my head so as not to wake up the household at that time of night.

And so it hard to wipe the smile off my face this morning as I again celebrate that accomplishment by taking out some yellow 2" squares and making a 16 patch-throw-down in a yellow Sawtooth Star to get this yellow party started for RSC15.

I was at an UFO day with my guild yesterday. It is always so wonderful when this group of highly talented and clever gals get together. In addition to wonderful quilts be finished and laughter shared, there are a few clever gems to behold. Like this flea shop find file holder, to take along and keep those that were using that table from getting their small rulers lost. Well done Colette.

I will off this afternoon to do an audit of the Alberta Regional Lily Society books, but mostly to have a cup of tea and a cookie with another couple of lily growers. Once those books are out of the way, it will be all sorts of talk about our favourite of flowers.

Wishing you a pleasant slowed-down Sunday

Love and Hugs
Kathy

  3. Oh my so many half square triangles. I see you use the easy angle ruler. Do you find using pretty accurate and do find you need to square them up after stitching them up? Your star block is fantastic! Love the background fabric.
