Such Big Plans!

As this weekend approached, I kept thinking about the projects I wanted to work on and I had SUCH big plans to get things done!  So far, though, I played around with the little patriotic star tabletopper I started last weekend.  I sure don't feel like I've gotten very far on my plans--at least not as far as I thought I would.  Of course, in my mind I thought I'd probably finish a couple quilt tops.  How unrealistic is that?!  Sheesh!  Oh, well, at least I'm pleased with what I've done so far.  I'll probably have the project I've been working on ready to show you tomorrow or the next day.  In the meantime, here are my scrappy blocks for this week:


That pink and red block is a little crazy, isn't it?  And I guess I must have been feeling a little green when I made the others.

With the addition of these four blocks, I'm officially half way to having the blocks I need.  Just as a reminder, I'm working on the Kim Diehl pattern, Pie in the Sky, from her book Simple Graces.  Don't forget to link up on yesterday's post if you have a scrappy project to show us.  Happy scrapping!

I love your blocks and they are going to make one pretty quilt! I too am wondering where my time is going these days...

I love your blocks, too! I also want to make the quilt, but I was doing a quilt shop hop with a friend, which is dangerous! We found the book at the first shop, and then we collected fabrics as we went along to the other shops.

I think these all turned out wonderful!
