My day in order of events...........


Yesterday I started with trying to get a photo of my Maple tree.  It turned color all in one day and now day 3 it is already dropping its leaves. It's hard to get a good photo of it because there is a Redbud tree directly in front of it.  I used to go into the neighbor's yard to get a photo from the other side but now there is a fence.




I chose the binding fabric for the fall color 9 patch and cut the 7 strips.






Next I took the big bin of flannel pieces and sorted them.  This is the pile of chunks that are going to be cut into a small tumbler shape.

I ended up with a pile of larger pieces in bright colors and kid print flannels and also a pile of muted colors.  I'll cut 6.5" squares from a lot of them.


This pile is all flannel strips, short ones, long ones, etc.  They are irregular widths and I'm waffling on keeping them or throwing them.  Since I have so much flannel yardage, it seems pretty senseless to work with these.



I sewed the binding strips together and sewed them on the quilt last night.









I started the hand stitching on the binding.  It was a productive day, maybe not exciting, but productive.
