Finally a sewing day, and I spent it at Ringo Lake

Today was warm enough that I finally felt like venturing out to go to my studio.  (Yay for double-digit temperatures!)  (Well, double-digit in the positive range, anyway, as opposed to the negative.)  (Tired of those double negatives, I tell ya!)
Bonnie's rapid-fire release of clues at the end of the year caught me completely flat-footed.  I still have a lot of components to sew, but I got a block sewn together today, and laid out the corner to see how it was going to work.


I'm going to like it!

I've been admiring everyone's efforts at the last linky party at Bonnie's house. 
Some people already have completed tops, or even completed quilts. 
I have a block.
I'm going to need another sewing day...

    Congratulations! You manage to do a lot on your sewing day. I like what I see too. You'll have a beautiful quilt in no time, I'm sure. Enjoy the double positive digit. Ummm ... positive double digit? Oh whatever! Just enjoy! ;^)

    Your colours look great! Just flip that sashing piece at the top around before you sew it together.

    You have more done than me then. It's a great design so I will enjoy putting this one together.

    I'm in frantic catch up mode too. And you're smart to check out the corner because the border lake is such a huge part. I like your colors and especially the sunlight shining on them.
