Something easy.................



I sewed the right edge column of blocks together for the medallion quilt and made the half blocks to finish the length of both columns and now I need to just think about what is next for that project.  Meanwhile I looked for an easy project to sew last night.  I had some stratas sewn and prepared to cut 16 patch blocks, maybe made last year or the year before.  This group of 10 blocks would be suitable for a baby quilt.  I'll look in the Kaffe orphan block box and see if there are any more in there.  If not, I need to cut some more strips.



This is the 12 blocks from the rest of the stratas, maybe for a different quilt.  I remember at the time I was sewing them I was down to a low variety of strips left in a box that used to be full.  There weren't a lot of good choices left to pair.  They will all work though in some quilt in the future and they are no longer a pile of sewn stratas.

We didn't even reach 30 degrees yesterday and today and tomorrow don't look much better.  We won't get above freezing until Tuesday.

I think everyone’s had enough of the below freezing temperatures. We had a bit of snow but I feel for those on the east coast!
