WiP/FMC - A Vacation from My Vacation

Because life is so hard, I decided to take a vacation from it all. Well, actually, I'm visiting my in-laws and playing tourist in North Carolina. Next week, we're playing tourist in Washington, DC. So there's not going to be as much sewing for a bit.

Finishes:
Before I left, I finished up the Layer Cake Snowballs top.

Fifteen Minute Challenge
  Still steadily working through Big Blue's binding. I turned the third corner yesterday. Home stretch!

In-Progress:
Central Park Sudoku - nine patches are sewn, partially sashed, and triple checked for Sudoku accuracy.
LQS Saturday Sampler 2012 (15/36 blocks) - good GRACIOUS, these blocks were a pain. Such simple blocks, such numerous simple mistakes.

Quilting:
Bad Romance & Fall-gyle - No progress on either of these. Oops. Really not doing well at catching up on my quilting. 

Swapping:

In-Progress-But-Not-This-Week
Fat Quarter Stars (6/12 blocks)
 
In-Progress-But-Not-This-Summer
LQS Saturday Sampler 2011 (12/12 & center)

  1. You've made a lot of progress this summer. Enjoy the vacation from your vacation. Hope it is cooler there than here. The computer says it's 112 outside and it's 8PM

  2. I like your black, brown and beige? green? blocks. Hard to tell but I do like how they look. I find I make more and more mistakes the tireder I get. Hum, I do believe I just made up a word. You are so incredibly organized!
