First off today I worked on my Friday Block Party square for the week.

You’d think that’d be simple but I was math impaired today and never could make exactly the right number of units for any section of the block.

Then I had some extra time and pulled out a project that I just work on now and then. It is the scrappy mini trips around the world. I started laying out the finished blocks and was horrified. It looked like a mess on the living room floor. You couldn’t see the diagonals well at all. I looked at it through the viewfinder and it was much better.

This picture makes it look so much better than it is. This may end up a donation quilt and I’ll just keep the photo that makes it look presentable!
