I didn't consult with this little missy when I made my over-the-top ambitious plans last week.


I did get a few things done. Mr. Law Student was kind enough to make sure I regained some sanity. He's awesome like that. And what time he couldn't give me I snuck in where I could. Even if it was 10 p.m. and I only finished one block. Still makes me feel good.
See, this is my list I post next to my sewing machine. So sewing one block means I get to "X" off one block. It's nice that way.

Sew 16 Sew Cherry granny squares
Sew 17 PKM pinwheels
- Sew 10 Dresden plates
Um, if there were a stove in my sewing room, these would be on the back burner. Zippo progress on these girls. Like I said, I was distracted this week.
Cut and sew sashing for granny squares top
Cut, sashed and CUTE! Had to enlist my 6 foot 2, eyes of blue Law Student to take a picture of this baby. She's big! With the borders, she'll be perfect for my bed. Now I have to come up with some pillow shams/cases.
Cutand sew sashing for PKM pinwheels top - I've cut the sashing, but I'm debating on a few things - Should I put squares in there, or mini pinwheels (I'm just crazy enough to sew 20 of 'em) - thoughts are welcome!
Plan border for granny squares top
If browsing around flickr counts as planning, then yes, yes I did plan. I like this border, this border, and this border. Equally. For different reasons. The second and third ones maybe just a smidgen more, only because I still have quite a few squares left, but those could always go to make a pillow shams. Thoughts? Votes?
I totally forgot to mention this, but this is another distraction that arrived on Friday afternoon:
That would be 280 color wheel charm squares, with some black, grey and white thrown in. I know, gorgeous, right?
So if you are interested in a stack of your own, I've just joined another one (because let's face it, two of those stacks would be so much better!). There's still quite a few spots. It's five yards of brights - no batiks or solids or pastels. My kind o' swap. Come and play. You will not regret it!
On to this week's goals. I'm keeping it simple:
- Sew together pinwheel top
- Cut fabric for pinwheel top and granny square borders
That's it. Just two this time!
What's on your list for this week?
