Last night, the boys had a friend over to spend the night. It was the first "successful" sleepover...meaning no I-wanna-go-home's at near-midnight. The coolest part is that they really needed minimal supervision. They mostly played LEGOs and watched movies. Which means, I got to catch up on sewing.
Because I'm so behind on Rachel's postage stamp quilt-along, I chose to focus on it last night. I was able to sew all but four strip sets. At that point, the boys came downstairs to watch TV. So, I switched to cutting since my sewing machine can get a little loud when trying to watch TV.
So, I cut...

and cut...

and cut.

Until I had a nice pile of strips to sew together.

All of the sewn-together sets are now in neat little piles, ready to be pieced together.
I still have the four sets to sew and cut, then I can start assembling the blocks. I hope to get all of that done today.
The quilt top has to be assembled by Feb 1 to enter the contest. A hundred bucks of moda fabric on the line. How can I *not* try to win?
