And On The Seventh Day, She Quilted

[sakon76]

I finished the dust ruffle for the crib last night, as planned, and this morning changed Squiddle's sheets and hunted his pacis out from under the crib, and put the new dust ruffle on, and it looks quite smart. And not too long and dragging on the ground, either! Huzzah!

But the thing is, though it looks quite smart, it doesn't really go with anything. So today, between other things, I pulled out the scraps from the ruffle, and from the pyjamas I've been making him, and yanked a couple bright coordinating cottons off my shelves, and a handful of neutrals, and started in on Quiltmaker's Bitty Blocks pattern series for the year. So I've got twenty 3" bow tie blocks sitting on my desk before me, and plans to make a few more out of the other scrap fabrics when I cut out his next three sets of PJs, and similar plans to move on to the February block, baskets, next weekend.

Because I can never have enough crafting balls in the air, apparently. I have three quilt tops ready to quilt, at least two more that require a bit of patching, two sets of blocks for two other projects, and the tumblers project I'm doing as leader/enders.

Someone sit on me and make me finish at least one quilt before I start yet another project????

It sounds really cute, with all the bits and pieces to tie things together! I don't know, is it nice to have some options to work on, feel in the mood to do one quilt over another? I usually try to finish one fic before starting on another, but I'm kind of liking having a few different things on the burners right now - inspiration hits me to work on one thing or another at different times.
