Design wall

Triangle Madness is a slow quilt. If it weren't for pride I would not have gotten block number 3 (the blue one) done. But I had to have something new up so I spent 1 1/2 hours last night and another 1 1/2 hours this morning making 1 block. I believe that there is not a single mistake in this block. I'm sure it looks static and uninteresting because of that.....If it is like my first I'll see a mistake in the middle of a conversation, with someone that does not understand quilting, and I stop and mutter, 'there IS a mistake.' I need to make more 1 1/2" triangles before next week so I can make another block. But that is at the end of the list.

Goals for this week:

• hand stitch the miters on the binding then/ did the 2 that looked bad and decided that the other 2 didn't need it.
• sew label on quilt then/ the first label I made looked horrible; made a new one and sewed it on.
• mail Melissa's baby quilt to her./ done!
• Print, then mail 12 patterns/ done!
• Quilt 2 customer quilts/ one done, one in the frame and started.
• bind I-spy/ 3/4 done
• cut squares for green I-spy; ready for 'brain-free' sewing. /done and sewn
• finish cutting Liz's wedding quilt...spent 2 hours Saturday and got 1 fabric half cut.
• get dresden plate on design wall/ done and 5% sewn-that's 20 of the 360 triangle units needed for the center field...not thinking about the border yet.
• make a gazillion more 1 1/2" triangles-a good activity for Friday's bee. /made none :( and didn't go to Friday bee.
• pack for my night in San Antonio area./ done and returned.

Is that enough to get started with? Then there are the family need to do's; the things that never change or ever get done. Laundry, cleaning, meals.

Today is my grandson's 2nd birthday. Happy Birthday Carter!
