and today the cutting began. I am using the log cabin block...but will not show what I am making with it till I am done. I first began by cutting the 2 inch strips from my lighter fabrics....and even began cutting them to lengths. But I have a ways to go before they are done. But the majority of that work is done...at least for the lighter side of the first part of the quilt.
Here is just a small sample from my darks...I have also have blues and a green or two and purple....I think I have more darks than I do lights. But that is okay. It feels good to have the decisions made of what to make....and to have sat down and figured out the sizes I need to cut of everything. Now if I can just keep from getting distracted and cutting wrong...it s so easy to do sometimes. Especially when all three cats come down to see if they can help. I usually use something and mark my ruler, and I very well may do that tomorrow if I get to go back down and work.
It is supposed to start raining, so it will be a good day to work. We are also lonesome for Lorelei...she called me night before last and wanted to come to my house. Or us to come there. You just cannot imagine how sweet it is to hear her little voice...and she will talk to her Papaw a minute but then she wants her Mamaw back...oh, and she is still dressing up every day as a pink princess. I thought the newness of that might wear off but it hasn't.
I guess we will see what tomorrow brings....
