Orca Bay step 2....

I got twenty string blocks done today. I hope these colors work in the quilt, my plan is to use blue to purple for the strings. Only fifty two more blocks to make by Friday....
 Alright, it's Wednesday afternoon and I have finished seventy two string blocks. I am now ready for step three....

I'm back....

We got back today at around 1:30pm. It was a really good Thanksgiving visit with my Parents in Ohio. I forgot to take my camera, so I have to wait for the pictures to arrive in the mail next week. The kitties were well taken care of by one of my DD#1's college friend.
Chipper and Scotty checked out the Friday sale stuff that I got at JoAnn's and the Saturday fabric I got on the way home at Sew What Fabrics.
This 2.5 gallon bag of scraps is probably the best thing I brought home, besides the leftovers from dinner. I love to empty my Mother's trash basket in her sewing room. It always helps give my scraps variety. The blue will go into the current Orca Bay Mystery.
