a whole week?

has it really been a week since my last post?  i guess so but don't think i haven't been sewing....idle hands are the devil's workshop, as my grandmother often said.  been working on the hand quilting of my donation quilt, of course, plus an applique project that is about 3 hours from finished.  also spent some time on guild project and meetings.  another stack of scrappy brick blocks are done too.   finally yesterday got back to this stack of blocks...

these are setting blocks (left) for the brackman sew along "antebellum album."  another block will be out wednesday but thought i would get these done.  managed to use up a fair amount of muslin from the bag-o-scraps posted previously...here is what it looks like now...

makes me feel uber-frugal to find a use for the scraps and use them up.  have no plans for the remainders as of yet.  as february winds down and hints of spring are all around, hoping can finish the donation quilt in march and continue on using up more of the stash in my own little shop.
