Congratulations, NZquilter!
The PNW is also on fire. Driving home from work you could see the layer of smoke settling down low, and couldn't see the mountains through the smoke.
I've been pressing and cutting like crazy this weekend. I've cut over 400 5" squares for I-spy quilts, and some of those had to be fussy cut (I decided no fussy cutting today though, I just wanted to be done). Once I got my squares done, I started using the scraps to start a crumb quilt, and pulled out more scraps to sort through and begin piecing tomorrow.
If I can find some more orange fabric, I'll start a pumpkin for the mug rug swap tomorrow. Apparently I don't really buy orange unless it is Halloween related or comes in a pack with other stuff...
I'm enjoying everyone's photos, and getting some ideas for some new projects!
