T is for Tyler Update

Sew...remember how I was supposed to vend at a bazaar at Fisher Price last Thursday but because of "Snowvember" it got moved to yesterday? Well they moved it again. Ackckckck.

I had switched days off from last Thursday to Monday but I decided to still take Monday off and I had a blast working on Tyler's quilt. I haven't worked on something *I* wanted to do in such a long time that it felt a little weird but it was fun to watch the top come together.

Apparently I had made more blocks than I originally designed in EQ7 so I worked to find a way to use them all. Hah! I settled on a layout that has me making 4 more blocks. No big deal - I'll finish it tomorrow, you know, my next vacation day. Other than today, I don't have to be back to work until Monday!!!

Saturday is Small Business Saturday here in Wyoming County and my LQS is having a 20% off sale - I intend to buy batting so I can sandwich this and the other quilt I hope to finish this week. I might actually get both done for Christmas. Woohoo!

I like this layout with the Ts and with your long holiday vacation, you should have no problem finishing. I didn't do any vending this year and shows I normally do have reported their attendances down to half to almost a third of what they normally have.

Don't you just love lots of days off from work? Happy Thanksgiving and sewing.

Tyler is going to love his quilt!!! I like the layout. I saw this block used somewhere else -- for a small doll quilt -- recently. I really want to try it out (on a small doll quilt)! LOL! Happy five days off to us!!!! And it's small business Saturday here, too!! :)

Nice looking, Sarah! Wow, you are really clipping along!
Black Friday, Small Business Saturday--whatever it is called, it translates to "stay out of town" to me. : )
