How did it get to be Sunday already?!?

 I could have sworn that yesterday was Second Monday, and the day before that was Warbleday, but I'm being assured that today is indeed Sunday.  

So.  

Seems like I've got a photo or two of what I've been up to this week.

I've got a heart of cake stands,

and a handful of chips.

And two more Antique Tiles have joined the party.

There's even a new PSP20-22 block done.

I counted up my Hawk's Nest blocks (which I type as Hawk's Next every. single. time. and have to go back and correct), thinking I had 10 or 11 done. It turns out I'd just finished number 20, so I'd better get moving and clear that design wall.  Which means it's border audition time for my Jacks top.

I pulled out some likely candidates - two different stripes and a couple of batiks - and pinned them up.

I really like the second batik (the one on the left), but sadly I've only got one yard and it won't be enough.  I'll keep scrumbling and maybe an idea will pop out at me.  In the meantime, I'll start making the alterate blocks for Hawk's Nest (nest not next. nest nest nest) (dammit) so I'll be ready when Jacks flies off the wall.

Hey, look! Another post!

 Already July is going better than the last six months.  Well, slightly more productive, anyway.

I got a couple of purple cake stands done for RSC,

as well as a couple of Antique Tiles.

I've got more of both of those blocks cut and ready to sew, which is what I've been doing in between sewing more Hawk's Nest blocks.

I lay out a block,

and stitch,

and lay out another,

and stitch,

and repeat, each time having a new block waiting in the on deck circle.

Luckily I've been sewing kabillions of those little HSTs right along, (I've been planning to do an Ocean Waves someday, as well as a pine trees quilt) so it's a simple matter of raiding the bag when it's time to lay out the next block.

And it's nice to have something ready to go when I first sit down at the machine.  None of that "where will I start" nonsense!

Can a Hawk's Nest be considered a squirrel?
