4 weeks!!!!

I was just over on my friend Joanne's blog when I noticed it had been 4 weeks since my last post. Shame on me!!!! I guess I have been busy but it sure hasn't been sewing. I have been working on 2 scrap quilts. These quilts are the result of a challenge I started on our Quilting In Indiana yahoo group. I am not making much progess on them however. I think it is simply because I want to start something new and won't let myself.
I did manage to get some organizational things completed over this past weekend. I managed to get all my fabric on boards and onto shelves in our spare bedroom. I think that was quite an accomplishment. I also have a cutting table on its way from www.Joanns.com to go along with those nice neat shelves of fabric in the spare bedroom.
I did also manage to do a little fabric shopping lately also. I just need to get those scrap things finished so I can use some of that new fabric!!!!
I received the quilt that Joanne quilted last week. She does a fatastic job with her HQ! Very, very reasonably priced also! Here is a pic of the quilt she did for me.

I didn't make this quilt top. I only provided the fabric in a Bag Lady swap last year (I think it was last year). Donna Collison was the creativity behind the quilt top. I want to get the binding added soon. I just need to finish up those 2 scrap quilts first!

The other thing I can add to my list of reasons why I haven't completed anything is Facebook. Facebook alone can become addicting but throw in the fun games and you can be totally addicted in minutes! I could play more games on Facebook if I would just get those 2 scrappy quilts finished!

Well, it is time to go and maybe make some sewing headway! I got to get those 2 scrap quilts finished!!!
Until next time, and hopefully it won't be 4 weeks, have a great day!

Glad to see you back. I have been checking wondering where you were. I also bought the cutting table from Joann's. I love it. It was really easy to put together.

Your Baglady is awesome! I love those fabrics especially. Congrats on the organizing mission, you're much braver than I!
