Didn't totally finish the third one.

Wow, 20 days.  Twenty days of whittling away at my scrap bucket.  It's not overflowing anymore, but it's still pretty much full.


I spent some time cutting up big pieces again.

I put together the light Churchdash blocks and put them up on the wall.  


Green!  It made me think 'green with envy' as a name.  But that is too obvious or something.  So I looked up envy in the thesaurus.

And I worked on the green quilt.  I finished the dark blocks and got them up on the wall.


Then I started on the light blocks.

I just barely squeaked these out.  I was busy doing other things, but I made myself work on the scrap bucket for a while anyway.

I was making the dark blocks for the green Churndash quilt.





Jax was busy sleeping until I disturbed him.

CLOVER SPOTTED

I haven't seen a Four-Leaf Clover for a while, but this morning on our walk in Lincoln Park I just stopped in my tracks and backed up a few steps, and there it was!  


I sketched this self-portrait because of a challenge to do so from the new IG live stream every Saturday morning, USkTalks with @Robsketcherman.  We were challenged to sketch ourselves doing something at home during this Pandemic Shutdown.

I took the Pi quilt off the wall after I had sewed all that I had up so far to make room for this green Churndash quilt with no name.



I have been making parts and pieces for this for a while now.

168 HSTs
My original plan was to put all of the parts up on the wall and arrange the colors in a pleasing order.  But, that seemed like too much of a chore.  So, I took everything down and am going to make blocks and then arrange the blocks.

On our walk in the park this morning I discovered the other glove, it was tossed off the trail into the bushes.  We disposed of it properly.

I made some masks for my sister-in-law, Patti, and one more for me.



I'm still working on these foundation pieced scrappy blocks.



After cleaning out the wheels on my old office chair in the studio, I sent for some different wheels, blade style.  I figure they'll not pick up the threads and scraps I throw on the floor.  They are much, much quieter, too.

Seen on our morning walk.
Today should have been Tax  Day, but it has been postponed!  Yea!  We owe this year, so now I don't have to mail a check until July 15th.  I'll make maybe $6 in interest.  Yoohoo!  This is one of the few positives of this horrible virus.
