A squirrel came by ....

Oh dear, I should have been working on other projects, but a squirrel popped by my window, distracted me and I was off in a different direction.  LOL

I have bins and bags of scraps and I just started pulling pieces and before long a pile was formed and blocks were being made.  There were a lot of 1-1/2" strips and 2-1/2" neutrals.  Rail fence is one of my favourite blocks to do and that is what were made.

Before too long, all the blocks were made.  Just need to start sewing them into rows and into sections.  Border fabric has been pulled.  I'm on a roll!  Did it make any difference to the amount of scraps?  Nope, but the way I look at this is that these pieces will never be touched again.  Win-win!

My studio has had a bit of clean-up and two bins were emptied.  How lovely to see!  I have a bin of French General yardage that will be given to a friend who is working with that fabric line.  Another bin will soon be emptied.  Oh my, win-win!

Batting is getting used up and soon I will have an empty bin and bag.  Win!

Scraps are getting used up.  More strips will be pulled out and Rail Fence blocks will be made as Leader/Ender method while I start working on projects that I should be working on.  Win!

Last week, two quilts were mailed out to two ladies in Saskatchewan (province of Canada) for Quilts for Survivors.

I have a couple more tops that will get quilted and then mailed out to a person that is in need of comfort.  It is nice to go to my stack of quilts and pull out one or two and donate them.  I really do need to downsize my number of quilts in my home.  Any that are not being used for display will go.  Family will be happy as there will be less quilts to deal with later ....

Cherish your day, cherish your life, cherish your country (and mine will always be Canada)!
