Hee Hee, I know, I am in the middle of another sewing project (more actually) right now that is not even quilt related. I have two quilts in a drawer that all the blocks are made I just have to put them together. I have about three runners I have not done the binding on, and then there is the list of projects my DH wants me to do. And more I am not even thinking of right now. Does it ever end :?: :shock: :wink: :D :lol:

I have 2 Woven Ribbon quilts to finish, my Red, White and blue I need to sew the blocks together, my Lemon/Lime Delight is waiting to be quilted and have a table runner to make for my SIL.
Will start on step 3 after getting home from the gym this morning.
Had an early eye appointment yesterday and then went to JoAnns, bought 2 fat quarter bundles of each batik they had while there (24% off), had bought the orange/yellow ones the other day, so got them all washed and pressed. I like to press my fat quarters dry, but now wished I had just thrown these in the dryer, had I think 60 of them, plus 2 other fat quarters I bought.

Oh my goodness Step 3 :shock: , I haven't even finished step 2 yet, also too many things on the go at once :lol: , Ah well at least I don't get bored. I'm off to cut even more itsy bitsy triangles :? . I think I might go the template way too as I don't have those trangle ruler thingies either.
Whoa Mary, you realise that's 15 yards of fabric you just pressed :shock: , that's way too big a job, even tho pressing fabric is way more fun than ironing clothes, you still gotta pace yourself :wink: :lol:

Yes, it was quite a lot, but oh so colorful. Started pressing around 1:00, pressed the last one about 7 pm, but I did take breaks too. And of course, had to clip the corners off of each before washing them, so my pinking shears got a good workout too.

I am cutting strips and doing steps 1 and 2 this week. I am leaving to go spend some time with my sister and will have not 3....not 4....but 5 days of unintrupted, blissfully sleepless days of sewing (or doing whatever I want)
