SPS Continued...

...and my aspirations were met. Which is unusual. Oftentimes I'll get sidetracked and not complete what was spinning around in my head, but alas, a Spartan basketball game captured the husbands attention and I was able to more easily focus. 

Here's the Call Me Crazy block #3...

Number three
Here's the Farm Girl Vintage Block #2...
Pie anyone?
And the binding is on Jill's granddaughters quilt so I'll be calling her in just a few minutes to deliver the good news. 

After I finished the FGV block last night I cut out the next block for later today (this week) which is half the battle. Picking out the fabrics and then starching them takes as much time as the construction I think.

Terry's quilt is the main focus today with a little of Barbs quilt thrown in later tonight. If I don't get too wrapped up in that, maybe some FGV piecing.

Small Project Sunday

I have three small-ish projects to do today. Normally, Sunday afternoon is lay around time, but we did that most of yesterday afternoon, so I've already got that covered. Today's projects include some binding, Call Me Crazy block #3, and another Farm Girl Vintage 2 block. 

I started on the Farm Girl Vintage 2 last night. Here's the pumpkin block I made...

Farm Girl Vintage 2...1st block

The pic is making it look a lot darker than it really is for some reason. Probably because it's very overcast and snowing this morning.

After we did lay around time, and before I dug into the FGV2, I put Terry's quilt on my iPad and started doodling in Sketches. I needed to find a cohesive way to move throughout the quilt without breaking a bunch of thread and to find motifs that I thought would work in the quilt. This provides me with a plan for Monday morning and I'm not struggling (and wasting work time) to get something that looks great. 

Weird Day

Appointments and errands in the morning. Long Arm a bit. Lunch. Long Arm a bit more. More errands. Long Arm some more and then start working...
