If I had to describe this summer in three phrases, they would be:
1. Broken collarbone
2. Really, really hot
3. Lots of travel
I don't feel like I had much fun quilting time this summer because of those same three reasons.
It's still really, really hot this week but I am home and (mostly) recovered from my broken collarbone and it's TIME TO SEW!

I signed up to make Jacquelynne Steve's Happy Little Things free block of the month and finally was able to make the first block!
I chose to make mine in sold fabrics because I have some fun machine quilting plans.
Flying geese have always been a struggle for me, but Jacquelynne has a great tip for piecing them accurately. Also, I tried out my new Folded Corner Clipper ruler:
I was able to line up the edges of my pieces, trim them, stitch them and press them. I didn't have to mark each square and trim later. It was WONDERFUL!
Are you signed up for Happy Little Things? Why not?
