Panic Mode
It has been a very long time since I have updated the progress on my quilt. Or should I say lack of progress!! Thanks to Chookyblue for sending out reminders of how many sleeps left until the end date of this present Stitch-A-Long. This has sent me into panic mode. I am so behind that I have spent at least three hours every day for the last week working on my quilt.
I have decided to cheat a little by joining all my empty applique blocks to their pieced blocks. I now have five columns to work on. This means that I can take it out and about with me as all the applique is already prepared. I decided to piece the blocks into columns as I had the last week off work and could spent time at my sewing machine without feeling guilty about household chores!
So I am making slowing progress but really enjoying getting back into the Stitch-A-Long. Please keep up the sleep reminders Chookyblue as it helps getting me motivated.

way to go Deborah.........glad someone is appreciating the countdown........keep up the big effort it will be rewarded with a gorgeous quilt..........
Almost like a blank canvas isn't it?? - it will certainly be easy to cart around with you.....Chooky - the reminders are great - even if a little scary!
The reminders have certainly inspired me to get a move on. You'll soon have some of those blank spaces filled in - keep going :)
This should go quickly, then as the patchwork between the blocks seemed to take the longest...now if you have the strips ready to sew in between, you'll have a quilt top in no time at all.
