Mark It Off!!!

I can't remember when I've been so focused on getting projects finished. I don't know if it has anything to do with Peg's challenge or just the fact that I know they need to be finished. Either way I'm happy to be able to cross this one off the list. The summer FSQS (Pink Daisies) is all done, just needs a label (that'll be done tonight) and washed (waiting for my order from dhrama to arrive). Then into a mailer and off to it's new home. I do hope it's new owner will be happy with it. It amazes me how when it's time to make these swap quilts I end up using colours I normally wouldn't use. It's a great way of expanding my thinking, when it comes to the use of colour.

I spent yesterday and most of last night piecing borders for the "embroidery" quilt, and this morning writing the pattern up to the point I'm at. I find it easier to write as I go. I can't imagine trying to remember what I did weeks or even months ago and getting it onto paper. I'm hoping to have it ready for the last of the embroidery by this evening and then I'll need to think about the quilting. Maybe I'll send it off to one of the local long arm quilters from the guild.

Happy Stitching.
