Oh, my day started off with a bang and then fizzled. I brought 4 projects that I thought would go together fairly quickly. No! First, I forgot (or thought that I had) my patterns at the house. I did find them in with the bags. Then, I was looking at a table runner that I had started and just decided I don’t want to make it and I will drop the blocks off at the guild meeting.
My second project was a table runner and I read it as using 2.5 inch strips. Wrong project, that was for a tote bag and I left that pattern at home. I didn’t bring enough fabric to cover the batting (one of those quilt as you go projects), and I didn’t want to buy fabric for it. Too expensive and I can do it at home. Third project was My First Crayons, but really not in the mood for it.
Last and final project was a go! At least at first. I had printed the pattern but didn’t realize until I started it that the block sizes were not on there. I made the first block and it turned out cute, I then got distracted and couldn’t seem to make it the same way a second time. With this rainy weather I was getting a headache and called it a day at 2 o’clock. I just wasn’t meant to sew on those projects. But I had a wonderful time visiting with friends, a good lunch and a little shopping. I bought a new long Omnigrid ruler and a yard of fabric for borders. I will be going back tomorrow and this time I will be better prepared!
