Yellow Explosion

Today was the first day I've had to really enjoy yellow. Thanks to my new iron, I was able to finally finish off the postage stamp stars.  While I was finishing things off, I framed out the rest of the nine patches for the framed nine patch quilt.  Then I dug up enough 2.5 inch squares for a white star on yellow background.  That just left the string blocks, I would have liked to make a few more, but I'm just about out of yellow strings.  Yay me!  It felt so good to have a day to enjoy sewing!  I still had time after all of that, and cleared out the yellow to get a head start on next month.  Nothing done yet,  but it was fun to start seeing a new color.  Oops, just remembered that I forgot the yellow 2.5 inch squares for the alternate blocks in the sampler quilt.  That will be next on the list.  Home days are awesome!  Almost forgot to mention the 6 loads of laundry, power lifting and grocery store.  Now, time to put up my feet and watch a movie with the kids.  Dad brought home Big Hero 6, should be fun.

Gorgeous blocks. I particularly like the ones which look like sun rays in the middle of the photo.
