The Man Quilt Update
Well I'm a bad llama, I've been working on my next post for the Man Quilt when i discovered some measurement issues and some missing blocks. SO ... I went looking for the fabric I had set aside from when i was originally making the blocks, only to find that I have no idea where they where put during the the last round of 'Spring cleaning'. So off I went to the local thrift shop to restock. I was in luck, home I came with a dozen or so new shirts and set to work making the required blocks. So now I have 12 blocks give or take sitting on my sewing machine. I got a little distracted reading .. I had decided to find out what all the fuse was about the Fifty Shades of Grey trilogy, made it through the first book in 2 days. Not my typical book of choice when it comes to reading but I enjoyed it and went and got the second one from the library the same day... and again had it done in 2 more days, and my poor quilt pieces sit lonely on my desk waiting for more attention. Okay so now on my fifth day of distraction and I'm trying to get my hands on the last book of the set ... and would you believe it all the copies are out!! With the book on reserve I set back to work on my blocks once again only to be interrupted yet again. This time it's my back .. can you believe it ...I've thrown my back out and haven't been able to sit at the sewing machine for two days so far and I have no book to keep me busy AARRGG!! I did download the preview to my e-reader ( one chapter is what i got) So now I lay in bed on an itty bitty laptop typing this brief message for my few readers. Hopeful that maybe tomorrow I can manage sitting at my desk for a bit.
