Can I do it???....Yes, I can!!!

This morning started like every other morning. Got the boys off to school and sat down to check my email while eating breakfast. I had an email from Jen. See I have been wanting to make a Yellow Brick Road quilt for a while now, but seems like I keep putting it off. So her email read...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

you could whip out a Yellow Brick Road lap size in a day with borders on it even right? Oh so perfect to branch into a larger size to practice stippling!!
Challenge...... Giggle, Giggle, Giggle.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

So I read it and thought....Hmmmmmm....... I went on outside to feed the horses and decided "Heck, I can do that, I think!!!" Finished feeding and back in the house I went. I dug out my greens and started cutting. I had all of it cut out and the blocks sewn together by noon. Took a break and then had my rows sewn together by 1:30pm. There are 42 blocks in it. And I would have had the border on it but I need to buy fabric for it. I didn't have enough to do the border.

Oh, if you look in the background of the photo you can see Ole Jim.

Anyway, thanks Jen for the challenge. I think sometimes we all need to have someone light a fire under our butts to get us going.

I'm tired and no more sewing for me today. I need to clean my house now.
