Fun-Filled Weekend

But not with my quilts, which is unusual! Caleb had a state FFA competition, so Friday evening was spent getting him clothes, dropping him off, and finally delivering that quickie bargello I created two weeks ago as a donation to local charity. We also went to a production given by the MSU Musical Arts department at the Warton Center. It was amazing!

Yesterday we found ourselves enjoying being "kid free" and did some shopping, visiting, and then home to begin a new quilt for a contest. It's called Block Party (I think) and it was a mystery block of the week thing that began last November. I failed to participate but once the clues were all out, found the quilt to be rather pleasing and decided with some prize initiative, to do the quilt after all. So it's my next project.

All the squares were cut last night and the first two sets of 9-patch blocks were made, as well as 2 of the 12 set-in square blocks. Tomorrow may be late in starting since we have to head back into Lansing to pick up the kid from state competition, drop some stuff off for the kid at state, and pick up our girl scout cookies. Yum!
