Well, I didn't get any finish posts out this week. It doesn't surprise me because this is the week I prepare for the MHMH board of directors meeting and that takes up huge chunks of time. Plus, we are already starting to receive blocks from the newest block drive. Lots to process!
I did, however, put aside some time to do a bit of sewing. We received some tubs of fabric and tucked inside one of them was a partial jellyroll. It looked like it was leftover from a project. I did some quick calculations, pulled a few fabrics that matched from the stash and started making some 10" strip blocks.

I was able to come up with 20 blocks which made a 40" x 50" little quilt. This used up every bit of the strips which made me very happy! Thanks, Diane, for the strips!
On the back. I used this bright yellow print from Karen. From a distance, it doesn't make much sense, but I promise there is yellow in the quilt top.
It was nice to do a bit of sewing that wasn't a binding or a backing.
I need to do more of it!
