While this isn't helping me to finish any of my projects already in progress, it has allowed me to start cutting out new ones! Oh, how I love a new project!
My son and I have been playing with the Go Baby for the past couple of days and it has been great fun! I have to been very careful when using the rotary cutter because Hurst, like most toddlers I imagine, is very curious and always eager to "help". He hasn't hurt himself yet, but he has gotten ahold of the cutter a couple of times which makes me so nervous! This is the best of both worlds: he gets to help and I don't have to worry about his little fingers!
I have been cutting up my stash of purple calicos/prints that I have had since I first starting quilting, but now are no longer my cup of tea. So far I have over 300 tumblers and we are still going. I think this weekend we will start cutting out triangles.
Once these are finished, I am going to take them to the next Quilting Angels meeting. I thought it would be fun to have a couple of kits on hand for anyone looking for a quick and easy project. Don't be surprised if I'm not the one working on them later this year!
I also thought I might take advantage of this down time to start cutting out some baby quilts. I know at least 8 people who are having babies this year, so I need to get working. Needless to say, I don't know that I will make 8 baby quilts this year, but I will be making several!
I hope everyone else has a wonderful weekend! Anyone else have any quilty plans or are you still burnt out from Christmas?
