More Progress (another little teaser!) teehee

Last night I finished sewing the bazillion half square triangles and got all the paper torn off. I pressed a handful just to post a little teaser this morning. I really enjoy doing this - it's my evil side. LOL

I've got my handful of half square triangles on one of my favorite tools - an Olfa Rotating Mat. This mat was a Godsend last night when I was cutting my triangles apart - slash/spin/slash/spin, etc. High recommended!

I've been playing a bit too much so now it's time to get to work - it's starting to pile up so I must get busy.

Thought for today: "The cure for boredom is curiosity. There is no cure for curiosity" Dorothy Parker

Gratitudes: Early morning quiet (a favorite time); a cup of fresh coffee

Your Thought For The Day is great. I love Dorthy Parker's humor.

When will we see your HST's sewn together - and how will they be sewn together? Just curious!

It's great how something simple like your 6-1/2" squares could help to get your creative juices flowing. Glad to know you're inspired again. Yes, sewing does make one a happy girl!

My gosh that is a lot of HST's! I've never used that method before. I either do the strips and sew back together method or I prefer to use the Easy Angle Ruler method.

I love your fabric though, it's so pretty. I like how the lights are so warm looking!

Once again I love your colour palette and I cannot wait to see what you're going to do with all those HST's. Have you seen the book "Spectacular Scraps?" Every pattern is based on a HST - really nice book.

I'm happy to be able to post to your Blog again.

Well, missy, you certainly are being quite the little tease here! We'll get you for this!

I love that line. My friend, Mar, is making a quilt from it, and it's going to be gorgeous!

Can't wait to see yours! Or are we going to get another tease?

(Hugs)

Darlene, I hope your slump goes away. I do that sometimes, too. Usually when I've either been doing too much, or there's an overwhelming amount to do!

Love you quote, snagged it for my siglines. =)

I hope you enjoy your 3-day retreat. Maybe that will motivate you out of the sewing doldrums.
