My husband brought me a mocha this morning and I've been on a caffeine high all day. I made an entire quilt today - it's not basted yet, but I finished the top in one day, all from stash.
If any of my minigroup sees this post, they'll be disgusted with me - We were all supposed to work on these quilts at the same time... over the course of the summer. I just 'got the bug' I guess. I still have to baste and quilt it, so I guess I'm not really done with it, but getting close.
Now it's time to reorganize and clean my sewing room again... I've made a mess of things with all the fabrics I pulled for this one, plus other quilts I've been working on. Something for my 'to do' list for this week! I have to get it done during the week because I've promised part of next weekend I'd work as a volunteer at the county fairgrounds. I think I'm only working on Sunday but it's sure to be stressful, not to mention painful.
I'm a little sad, I won't be entering anything of my own in this year's fair... the few things I've finished aren't really fair-worthy... maybe I'll enter my little lonestar wall-hanging. We'll see...
