After my second Covid vaccine on Friday, I decided to sew a little. I have a bunch of RWB (plus gold and grey) 2.5 inch strips leftover from previous projects. Plus as I come to the end of yardage, I cut into either 2.5 or 3.5 inch strips, depending in the amount of leftover. I then throw, er, place on one side of the cutting table. Sew...I thought that the sewing of end to end 2.5 inch strips would be a great mindless activity. Sew...any strip that was more than 10 inches and less than 40 inches would be sewn together in one continuous strip like the jelly roll race. I had in mind that I could use the strip for this quilt here or maybe either one of the quilts here . I'll probably wait until the FB QOV Working Stars announce the next block challenge to tackle this particular project. I guess I over estimated my leftovers...LOL. It took me longer to roll 'my jelly roll' than to sew it!
Saturday, I finished rolling the above roll and called it a day.
I was in Covid vaccine fog...
Sunday, I thought I would try sewing a bit. I had put my latest lender/ender project on the wall and thought just sew, sew for a bit and it would be a flimsy.
Well, I spent more time ripping than sewing. I manage to sew the first row all wrong and had to switch blocks around. Ugh...so much for trying to space out the many gingerbread boys/girls in this one! After I finally got the top portion done, I called it a day.
