    I did get the book spiral bound today, so it lays flat on the table. Guess I am making small steps forward. Have two pp patterns cut out, ready to do. Found some more blues and reds in our short FART trip today and another tub to hold all the fabric, separating the blue from red, so each has their own totes.

    today I'm paper piecing the four corner 1/2 blocks. The diagonal rows are stitched together. I've really enjoyed this process but if there is a part of quilting I'm not too keen on it is those last long rows
    There is a photo of my starting greens pile at the beginning of the quilt, I'll do another one when I finish. I'm guessing it is about 1/4 the size of the beginning pile.

    the colors didn't photograph well. Can you spot the one thing I didn't do?
    Am I going to go back and fix it? Not a chance...

    got back in to the sewing room last night, and sewed up the wedges for idaho (next week) and started on the wedges for Hawaii. Those two seemed the easiest for the 4 i have to catch up on. Hopefully I will finish Hawaii today and start georgia. I am kind of avoiding florida, i started a full time job this month after 6 years as a stay at home mom and it derailed my paper piecing mojo.
