what are you working on?

Hi, Sally told us a couple of days of her current projects. It got me thinking about mine and how I was going to accomplish even a fraction of what I want to get done.
Last night I started by doing some Scrap Therapy on my sewing table clutter. Now, I am not an Eleanor Burns throwing things over my shoulder. Instead I throw them to the opposite side of the dining table that I use for sewing. I have scraps from a couple shop samples, a few finished projects and some from a couple current ones. We used to have Scrap Therapy at the store and the goal is to cut your scraps into
2", 3.5" and 5" squares to be used in ST patterns. I have already purchased a few patterns but haven't cut enough to do anything. Whether you use this method to control your scraps or your own preferred method, I would recommend working on scraps as you go, don't let them pile up. If you will never use your scraps pass them on to a friend who will.
Next thing I did, was do my Step 2 for the Kimberly Einmo mystery that the ladies from Girl's Night Out are doing. And I also went back to square up my step 1 patches. Might redo a few to straighten out the squares. I love my fabric and can't wait to get this together. I used Kimberly's Flying Geese ruler and it is great. Some days I just do not want to draw a diagonal line for HSTs and this ruler and a few other brands save that step.
And I am also working on a new quilt from Kimberly's new book, Jelly Roll Quilts & More from AQS. The quilt I chose to start with is called Chain Saw and it is great to have all the fabric in the house and not have to buy anything for a change. Well, I think I will have to buy backing but that can wait. After I finish this quilt, I want to do Square Dance. Unfortunately, I did not have a Honey Bun and Jelly Roll from the same line of fabric. In fact my only Honey Bun is called Whispers and is soft colors, while my Jelly Rolls are all Kansas Troubles or batik rolls.

The Attic Window will be welcoming our friends for Girl's Night Out on Wednesday night. I am hoping that everyone who is doing the mystery, Northern Star Trail, bring in their step 1 patches. I would love to get pictures posted as the steps are done. Kimberly will be coming to Wenatchee in August and we hope to have a good selection of finished quilts to show her.
