Thursday - an early start

An earlier start than I would have liked because of going down to the laboratory 

for a whole lot of blood tests following

my visit to the Rheumatologist yesterday - a downer was that

two of them had to be fasting so I was outside

the door as soon as they opened!

I haven't done a thing for a few days with quilts, grabbed a handful of

clean up fabric strips yesterday to make a cover for my birthday

iPad, turns out most of the strips were in the green range

quilted the lining and now need to trim to the size needed. I may not quilt the strips, 

I did flip and sew so they should be OK, I'll think about that

whilst writing this post.

Yesterday I found that I had quite a collection of yellow fabrics bought

maybe two years or so ago with the intention of making

a yellow diamond quilt - now I've changed my mind so I 

have heaps more yellows to add to my already considerable yellow stash.

I also bought around two and half yards for the border

so I will not need any more yellows!

Sorting out scraps is turning out to be a major I have just folded some of the ones I have 

used recently which were piled up on my table and

decided to keep them in one drawer just for Kaffe Collective scraps 

I would really like to begin on a quilt from the book by 

Sujata over at The Root Connection
but as having my eyes dilated is on the cards for around lunchtime and therefore not
being able to focus for a few hours after that the new start is out!

Off to make the most of the morning whilst I can still
see clearly - have a good week!
