[ATTACH=CONFIG]349076[/ATTACH]good morning...figured I would take a picture and have a cup of coffee before I start....I need to sew more strips, cut and sew on the top and bottom sashing, I also just put my white fabric into the washing machine. I have decided to make the next border/sashing white. So far I am pleased on how its coming out. I have 1/2 hour to cruize the quilt board first. My favorite time of the day!Its 4:34am here. Morning ALL!! Happy quilting!

Is there a way to have this thread open with the last comments first? that way we would not have to scroll down all the time since we are going to be checking in through out the day.

I don't know why telling a bunch of virtual people that I have a sewing goal makes me focus and accomplish stuff but it does. Otherwise, I just caught up in lots of other chores and errands. Thanks so much for thinking of this!
I know what you're saying. But I just find "being accountable" (even to virtual people) helps me get stuff done. I may be a little late in starting because I seem to have insomnia tonight so will be dragging come morning. But I know exactly what I'll be doing & trust me... I will be doing it! I suppose I could get up & sew now but I'm afraid that would wake me up too much so will just wait & work on my Jelly Roll Race later in the day. It'll be too hot (AGAIN!) to do anything else, so sewing it'll be! Yay! C y'all later!

burch- we are not virtual people- I, for one, am all too REAL!
carolaug- your project looks super cute. How are you getting on with it now?
I have stopped for a dinner break.
My sewing room is half tidy, and my annoying little quilt-in-progress is now in two pieces, instead of six.....

I am not sure, but when you are away from the computer for a bit and then come back to the thread, before you go into it, next to the title on the left you will notice a little blue circle with two white arrows pointing down. click this and you will be taken only to the new posts in the thread. This should help you find the new stuff quicker!!

Good morning all you cyber friends! I am up; that is about all I can say right now. It is 7:25 AM here. I need to get dressed and eat some breakfast and then I will be hard at it all day. I have my Monopoly quilt ready to bind, and the valentiney quilt almost ready to quilt. Will take some pics in a bit. Then I will start something else, I think. I do have another quilttop to quilt. Will check in again in a bit.

Too keep up with the new posts, I just keep the thread open on my screen, when I check back in I just back up one page and then come back to the current page and all the new posts are there.

I have 34 more of these blocks to square up and then I can start working on the actual quilt. Have to take a break to go to church but after that I should be able to quilt all day!
