Cleaned and re-organized the sewing room. Sewed 3/4 of a toddler quilt and rotary nicked a finger on the left hand and caught the other hand under the needle screw and took a chunk of skin out - the first time EVER for doing either of those so got them both out of the way in one sitting!

Finishing off my Dresden Plate hanging and made great progress on a quilt for my grand niece who turns one year old later this month. Fussy cut Popcorn the Bear and some very cool rabbits with tossed teddy bear sashing, looking very cute.

Would love to have spent the weekend sewing but I have been busy with family the entire weekend! However, starting tomorrow evening I intend to finally get back to my quilting. I have several WIPS to choose from...mainly various BOMs that are in various stages. Also want to make a Bow Tuck bag for a good friend and I need to do it soon.

I'm working on two donation quilts for my children's school. The school mascot is a frog so I purchased two lots of 5 inch squares from Ebay and made two quilt tops. I've quilted on and just have the other to put on the frame tomorrow and it'll get done.

I am currently working on a mock Log Cabindone in shades of purple for our Fall Fair on 9-30-10-1-I have 24 of 36 blocks done so far. I cut these out on Wed of last week., Still need to cut out the rest, border sandwich and bind. I should get it finished. Also have to bind another quilt I am entering. I hate to bind quilts, because of the hand work.Oh Well! Wishing everyone a great week.
