I went to a guild indoor yardsale today. I almost filled a good size reusable shopping bag. I came home with lots of goodies and only spent $35.00.😍I then sewed on more triangles this afternoon. These are what the triangles look like.
I am making triangles to make this quilt.

update on the baby quilt:
I didn’t get any quilting in on Saturday, but today I managed to piece together the backing, baste the quilt and FMQ just under half of the quilt. The bobbin ran out just before dinner, so I may get a little more done tonight or maybe tomorrow. Hoping to get it finished up by Wednesday so I can wash & dry it before the weekend!

I'm going to try to locate my motivation....it's been missing lately, or playing hide n seek with me. Earlier in the week I did make some 4 patches, but not enough to really do anything with. Maybe I can add them into a quilt at a later date. This is what happens when you have too much fabric and patterns. Decisions can be overwhelming.

I finished the QAYG blocks and am washing the backing today as its finally sunny enough to hang out to dry. While I wait for the back to dry I'll work on making the binding. I doubt that I get much else done today.

LGJARN52, our mojos must be hanging out together somewhere! When that happens, I make utility items like potholders and zipper pouches. That is what I am working on after straightening up my workroom!

LGJARN52 AAshley333. This too shall pass. My mojo disappeared last fall for several months. I had read on here about refolding and organizing your fabric stash as a way to Inspire us. I did that and it worked for me. I am happily back at my sewing machine stitching away. Mojo is a funny thing, we never know when or why it goes away, then one day, it just shows back up, and the rhythmic hum of the sewing machine is heard again coming from our creative spaces.
