The Spring weather has been absolutely lovely here in Oregon so I haven't been in my sewing room very much. When I do go in there, I find myself not very focused on anything specific.
With all of my red RSC blocks completed for May, I went back and sewed a couple blocks in blue that I didn't get completed in April. I think I want to make two more blocks in some different shades.
And I completed another log cabin block in blue to go with the green one I completed last month. These take FOREVER to cut and sew. The whole block measures 6" when finished. The logs are cut at 1" and 3/4" wide. I still need one or two more - for sure one in purple!
I was cleaning off my cutting table and uncovered these blocks that I think I made about a year ago. How could I forget about them!
I felt an instant need to make more. My Kaffe Fassett scraps were closest to my fingertips so I made four more blocks. Looks like I have two basket quilts going now.
Now I need to head back outside and dig in the gardens. I don't need any more temptations to start another new quilt :)
