Commotion in the Ocean from Blank Quilting

I'm getting in the mood for our smooth jazz cruise

which departs Ft. Lauderdale next Friday.  My bags are

half packed but there's still a ton of stuff I need to

do ... like leave notes for the pet sitter, take my sewing

machine in for a tune-up, take my computer into the

Apple store [it needs a new battery], pick out a

new iPad [my current one is so old the software wouldn't

even up date so it just died].  I could go on and on .. .. ...

Progress shot for the quilt [below].

It's simply a 9-1/2" square with [2] 5" squares placed

on opposite corners of the block.  The trim away from

the corners I turned into pinwheel blocks.

This turned out so cute I made another just like it.

The pinwheel blocks worked perfectly along the

right side of the panel.

Everything came together so nicely - I'm happy.

I won't have my sewing machine [that could

take up to 3 weeks before servicing] and I 

won't have my computer [service could take 5 days] 

but at least I will have a new iPad to set-up. 

My iPhone will allow me to check e-mails, etc.

so I won't be totally out of touch but I know

time is going to slip right by as I count 

down the days until warmer weather!
