Fifteen Minutes

Good morning, my friends. I'm writing super fast this morning. I have just 15 minutes before I need to jump in the shower and get ready to head out for my monthly pedicure. Honestly, I wish I was staying home. I seriously considered canceling yesterday, but then decided to go ahead with it. So, here we go. No fluff. I hate to write and run, but that's the way it goes sometimes.

There was time for some slow-stitching before we headed out for the grocery store yesterday. I finished the first of three blocks I'm working on for "S" is for Sew.

And there was a little time to start on the second of the three I'm doing for this go-round.

Knowing these will stitch pretty fast, I traced the next block for A Year in the Garden. Probably I'll be ready to start on this in a day or two.

From there we did our grocery shopping and ran some errands in town. When we got home it was time for lunch and naps. I took a little longer-than-usual nap...mainly because it felt good being under the covers and warm. There was still time to work on my "Circus" piece. I worked on it for a little longer than my allotted hour yesterday. Now I've reached the most important and challenging part of the piece. It's not too challenging, but it is the part that I must get right to make it look the way I want it to. Here's your peek:

Sadie helped me choose the colors of fabrics. I had to distort that picture below her. No peeking. You guys are so sneaky!

And there was enough time at the end of the day for me to stitch around the third corner of my quilt binding. I'd guesstimate I'm about two-thirds of the way around now.

Possibly I can finish this today. 

So, except for the pedicure, today will look a lot like yesterday...only faster. And with that...I gotta' go. Have a good day, Everybody!!
