Design Wall Monday on Sunday Night

After last week's pickle situation,

I am all excited to be sewing on a found project,

 better know as a squirrel.

Did you all see there is a Squirrel! Club?  

I love it!

I've had these 4 gifted blocks for quite a few years.

I've always known I wanted to continue and make a quilt with them.

I pulled out my 30's fabrics to bust more of these scraps.

Then I got online and ordered yardage for borders, binding and backing.

That center block on the top row was from my very first project using the Tri-Recs rulers.

I made a table mat and made enough to make 2 but only made 1.

It's being used in the bus. 

I still have 8 little blocks so I using 4 as corner blocks on the outside border.

I sat down at the computer and chose a few blocks.

It was lots of fun to choose and kit up these blocks.

It was more fun to sew them. 

I have these 2 blocks to sew up and then I can set them.

We are headed back to the beach with family this week, 

so that won't happen until the weekend.

As I was cutting, 

I noticed all the rulers I had out. 

I like to call these the tools of my trade. 😉

I like the Essential Triangle Ruler but on occasion, 

I grab the old standby Easy Angle and Companion Angle. 

Another UFO is being busted!

It felt good to make great progress this weekend. 

It was so hot here that I didn't mind spending all that time 

in my air conditioned sewing room.
