I have to admit that it doesn't feel like fall around here yet. School is in full swing though, so that makes it feel a lot les like summer. I seem to have a lot of blue and green on the wall. Why then are all of those scrap bins still overflowing? I think this is why people do monochromatic quilts.
I have a beautiful all green quilt that I made using Bonnie Hunter's Jamestown Landing pattern. I could easily make an all blue quilt from what is hanging out in my sewing room right now. First though, I think that I will scavenge through this stack and make some hexies. I have a flight tomorrow for a trip to present at a conference in New Orleans and I will have some time to sew while in transit. How is your weekend shaping up? New months are full of new plans. I hope you have some scraps to work with.

600 miles makes a big difference, Angela! We are definitely getting some hints of Autumn in the air here in central North Carolina. The nights have been cooler and we've even had a few cool days. Your temps will cool down... eventually. Hang in there!
I can always make more with my blue and green scraps, too! Your different kinds of four patches are making a fun design on your wall, Angela. Have a great week!
You are always so very busy! I applaud your energy and drive! I really enjoy your blog. I used to be very busy while teaching and raising four children. Now I'm 77 and very retired. I quilt, I read, I take lots of walks, and I nap, and I cross stitch, and do a little knitting. I try to stay away from too much political news. The less stress the better for me. But I sort of miss those teaching years...sort of.
Thank you! Your blocks are looking great. I think that I'll always have scraps to work with, since they seem to reproduce when I'm not watching. Have a good week.
