AHHH - is it too early to start planning for Christmas? I went to the grocery store yesterday and they were putting out the Christmas candy on the shelves where the Halloween candy was just 2 days ago. I really would like to just enjoy November and Thanksgiving first.
In & Out is one of this year's Simple Whatnots projects (Kim Diehl), and it is only about 15" square so it shouldn't have taken so long for me to finish it. But I've been procrastinating on these each month and working on other things. It's done and I think this one will make a sweet little doll quilt.
Now that this one is checked off my list, I've pulled out Laundry Line, the one from last year that I got so frustrated over. It's not that I don't like it, but I had an issue with getting some of the blocks to lay flat, and that took some of the fun out of it so I put it away temporarily. The basic blocks are all done but the sashing has a zillion little pieces and that is the UFO I'll be tackling next - in between other projects. I hope to get at least one or two blocks sashed this week.
