my kind of detour

see these?  wednesday started out well....to-do list in hand and resolved.....filled laundry basket, washed up few dishes and put various things away.  was right on target.  next, attack bathroom and after the floor was swiffered, sat down at sewing machine to wait while it dried.  you might have done the same.  but my eye wandered over to a pile of scraps, a small pile.  next thing i know, rotary cutter in hand and cutting up bricks and other sizes, just to get rid of these few scraps.  well, before you can say aurifil thread, had pulled out the scrappy brick blocks and those that got sewn wrong...how did that happen?  unsewed and resewed some, but the to-do list beckoned and back to chores.  at 4 pm the scrap siren got louder and louder.  only one way to satisfy it....finished resewing the deconstructed blocks, sewed up a few more....and that's exactly how it went.  the to-do list isn't quite done but it was the detour that really made my day.  so glad the scrap siren called....uh-oh, there it goes again!
