Early in the day yesterday I sewed the 15th LeMoyne Star block. It was already cut so that didn't take long.
I opened the Sunday only project box and I only had 8 sets of fabric ready to sew. I'm down to a very small variety of triangles so I need to do some cutting. I added plaids the last 2 weeks. I might add batiks because I have a small stack already cut.
I still had some time and energy left (I could have run the vacuum cleaner....no, I couldn't) so I cut strips off of the first pull of fabrics for the next quilt. Rather than take big yardage pieces to the ironing table I decided to cut strips 1/4" wider than I needed and then ironed the those strips. Now I'm ready to start cutting pieces from the strips. First though I really need to get a backing fabric pressed and the seam sewn. The end of the month is creeping up.

Plaids on your Sunday Sewing project are really nice.
A bit warmer here this a.m. -- low 50's--nice walking weather...

Nope, the end of the month is roaring up like a steam train belching smoke, steam, and sparks, and with every horn on it blaring. And no brakes.
Every star just sparkles with your fabric combinations. This is going to be a beautiful quilt.
Your Sunday project is such fun combinations of fabrics.
And so happy to see you’ve been lured into creating your own ‘Square With in a Square’. (Don’t know if thats its real name or not)
