I envisioned a full afternoon working on my quilt today. I got the backing sewn together and started pin basting. My last quilt had some puckers in the back, so to avoid that I taped the backing flat to my floor and pin basted more closely. I ran out of pins halfway through, and went to get more. Was distracted at the quilt store by a big sale. Got back home, finished pin basting, and discovered that with the tape holding the backing extra flat to the floor , I pinned almost every pin into the carpet. It was a pain. My quilt is basted now but I did not get nearly everything accomplished today that I thought I would.
