Since yesterday was Monday, it was a work-in-the-yard morning. Which actually took until 1:30 in the afternoon since the yard had been ignored for a week. And it was hot. And it was muggy. And it zapped most of my energy while giving me a stellar headache for the remainder of the day.
I decided to not long arm at all because my work wouldn't have been my best. Cleaning out a WIP tote seemed like the restful thing to do. Five projects total (four in the tote and one on the shelves) were found.
Project #1: A Jacqueline DeJong class from Craftsy that was started years ago that I no longer have an interest in.

| What to do with this? |
Project #2: An anything bag, which was from another Craftsy class, that had the zipper on the wrong side.
 |
| I wasn't going to salvage a $.32 zipper |
Project #3: A large bag model to use for laundry/customers that is just that...a model. Not really a project at all.
Project #4: The Painted Ladies. Now this one you'll be hearing about for a few weeks.

| The Painted Ladies |
I'm very excited about this project. Each house is a combination of paper piecing, traditional piecing, and raw edge appliqué. I started working on the third "house", which is actually the Bakery last night. After an hour and a half, I made a door. These things are not for the faint at heart.

| It's a door |
It's hot and muggy outside and today is a normal work day in here. Long arming Norma's reindeer will begin shortly and if the storms kick up like they're predicting, I'll move on to something off the long arm. Like the Painted Ladies. 😀
