Two more postage stamp blocks

After the hectic rushing around at the beginning of the week, it was really enjoyable to just potter around and get some time at the sewing machine,
 I managed to get two more postage stamp blocks made before lunch.  As it was already a late one, and the boys were beginning to protest, I had to stop and feed everyone.
As I had been enjoying myself so much, I thought I would continue after lunch, so back to the sewing machine I went. I was quite happily sewing away, when suddenly everything went dead.  The power had gone off.  After checking the fuse box, and finding it wasn't us, I just had to put everything away for another day.  The power came on over an hour and a half later.  What a good thing it is, that I have plenty of other things to keep me occupied.

The last couple of weeks have been rather busy, so it was a good thing someone had reminded me that tomorrow is Friday Night Sew In.  Not only has it reminded me what day of the week it is, I need to decide which project I'll be working on.

Look at you go! Before much longer you'll be putting your blocks together into a quilt top! Keep up the good work! :0)

You have been busy with those little blocks. It will be beautiful when it is finished.

How annoying for the power to go off just when you got in the sewing groove! I guess it was still light enough to do other things?

Anyway, get progress on the stamp blocks.

They're looking great! I'm sorry to hear about your power (these things happen around here off and on), but glad it came back before, say, dinnertime :)

I just love these colors.

Why can't the power go off in the middle of the night when we're all asleep?
