WOOD (SHOP) ON WEDNESDAY!

I went to my quilting group and enjoyed figuring out the piecing for the latest project.

I was glad to learn that the heavy plastic templates worked with a rotary cutter which will help with the piecing immensely!

When I got home, I only had a few pieces to add to finish the row.  Today, I will be sewing the two rows together and hopefully will have time to tackle another row!  I do need to take stock of how many units I need;  I always know what I need and then cut it out so this is a different situation for me!

Bill helped me put together a new shelf 

for my logs in the woodshop!

The little shelf wasn't sufficient for my supply of wood!

I used the old shelf to hold the hickory wood and clear the space where it was just piled on the floor!

I was able to see some order result 

and have even more wood to stack but it was enough for now. 

 It is still pretty hot in the garage not to mention the humidity!!

We finally had our WiFi restored at dinner time--it was torture to be disconnected! lol

MINI PETALS LAID OUT

It took forever to arrange the blocks for this top!  I not only wanted a balance but I wanted the X to be prominent enough to have an affect on the pattern.  I did see a mistake when I took this photo and have since corrected it! lol

 I have managed to piece 5 rows which is halfway through the top--I will be finishing it up today!

This is the pattern I am using to the gist of the design only I didn't want my X smack dab in the middle--it works for me!
