It has been so relaxing to have time off from taking classes to have mental space to sew. I quilted 2 ongoing projects last weekend and then kept digging to find one more set of almost complete blocks. I decided that 8 more blocks would be enough for a seven by 10 setting. And then cut out lattice and cornerstone bits. This one is ready to sew together. I ended up going with a consistent rainbow print for the cornerstones and then stacked everything up next to the machine. I think three of the seven rows are together so far, I will keep working on this one today. First, we need to finish some Christmas shopping and I am supposed to make cookies for work on Monday. So much holiday cheer! I hope that you are finding some time to slow down this holiday season. Being merry can be a bit exhausting!

What a great star scrappy quilt, Angela. I love that all the centers are pieced differently.
Beautiful blocks and layout. I remember when I was in grad school just how good it felt to NOT have any assignments for a couple of weeks in between semesters. Enjoy all the time you have.
Those star blocks were a great find, Angela! And perfect sewing for when you get around to a few seams. Enjoy your cookie baking, too!
