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!
