Back to business...

I was in Michigan for a week without my sewing machine, and boy, was it good to get back! I started sewing as soon as the car was unpacked!

As a result (combined with the fact that I'm putting off my biggest "Spring to Finish" project, the only one with a real deadline), I finished my "On the Road to Spring/Brick by Brick" quilt. Backed and bound with a neon green and fuschia Jan Mullen "Bohemian Melodiez" print, I used narrower strips and made it half as big as Randi's quiltalong recommendation. It's a very happy baby quilt.


I also came very close to finishing a second quilt using those Kaffe prints I was coerced into buying a couple of weeks ago. All it needs is binding!

There's a lot to be said for procrastination-based momentum!
