*runs around, head on fire*

I've got the low-volume quilt top finished.  I solved the problem of not enough neutrals that went together by flipping one fabric to make it work and using its backside as sashing.  I also pieced a backing from the stash.  I even have enough of the backing fabric left to make either a pillowcase or storage bag to go with.  I just need world enough and time (or, more concisely, living room floor enough and time) to get it basted.

But that's going to have to wait a week and a half.  I have guild meeting #1 next Tuesday night and I need to sew my Ugly Fabric Nine-Patches for the exchange.  And at least six, but hopefully eighteen, pinwheels for the Block of the Month.  And photograph them and write up the instruction sheet for the BoM!  And then the next morning will be guild meeting #2.  And I would like to sew five Single Wedding Ring blocks for that block exchange, but we'll see.  And next Friday will be my workshop with Bonnie Hunter!  So I need to get everything together for that and give my 301 a tuneup and a workout.

Plus taking care of the two little boys and cooking and cleaning and making sure Wonderful Husband doesn't run himself into the ground.

...I may have engaged in a little retail therapy today.  Stress relief!

ETA: Nine-Patches sewn.
