hello! today is crazy busy, so I'm just going to show you a couple of quick pics of what I'm working on right now. more info will follow as I {hopefully} find time to sew & make a bit of progress. ok, here we go!
I'm making a patchwork skirt, because who doesn't want to wear a quilt? {and it's plaid!!}
these are 144 cracker blocks 1/3 of the way done. I still need to cut 288 squares on the diagonal and sew 4 of the resulting triangles to each block {that's 576 triangles for all you math geeks out there :) } I started these at the quilt retreat I went to awhile ago.
FYI, I'm super sizing this tutorial from the Moda Bake Shop.
Ok, I've got a full day of appointments, track & field, and two baseball games to get on with. but first, I'm linking up with Sew & Tell Tuesday , Freemotion by the River, and Quilt Story. have a great day!
edited to say: now that it is Wednesday, I'm linking up over at WIP Wednesday, too :)

I love those 30's prints. Can't wait to see this done. Thanks for sharing the pattern, I hadn't seen that one before!
Great fabrics, looking forward to seeing the progress.
Looking forward to seeing your plaid patchwork skirt. Will be lovely I am sure to wear this summer. Thanks for vising my blog yesterday too! :) I love my place mats.
These are wonderful projects. I made myself a skirt too... And now I have a quilt to match!
That is a lot of triangles. Good luck!
Yes, things are picking up now that it is spring. So glad you took a few minutes to share with us! The quilted skirt looks great. And so do those blocks! Love the pastel prints. Good luck with all those triangles!
