I'm working on my attitude. 
I got a quilt basted last night and was hoping to start the quilting tonight but needed to pick up some thread. Turned out that my choices were either to get all three kids (6, 3, & 1) in and out of the car in the rain...or just wait and get the thread another day. I opted for the latter, but now that the kids are in bed I want to be quilting!

I finished sewing my squares together to cut out the Twister shape. It's hard to cut up the patchwork when it's all sewn together with border! I'm babysitting my 11 month old nephew so will be out of my sewing room until he leaves on Sunday. That's okay because I can hand stitch hexies until then.

Love your fabric! I'm doing the Craftsy BOM by Jinny Beyer. Tonight I am working on hand sewing the appliqué flowers onto the pieced flower baskets. I just love Jinny Beyer fabrics and her designs; but making these blocks is really time consuming.

I tried to make a fussy cut mariner's compass - I think I ripped out more than I've sewed. Trying to decide if I should give up and start over, or try to salvage it. I really messed up putting the secondary points in.
I'm ready to try something simple for a while.

I'm working on making 3 scrappy quilts for my 3 oldest DGS's. They're moving to Texas soon. 
So I want them to have a reminder of us....
Plus, it is 100* outside. And for a while. Ready for it to end.
