A family day

Yesterday was a family day, a birthday lunch for one of my sisters-in-law and then back to another SIL's house to chat with the family.  That was 5 hours of sitting which I'm not used to.  It was fun to catch up on all of the family because we don't see each other as often in the winter.

My friend Mel/Fibermania walked me through some changes for my blog.  I'm using a new layout that stretches out into more of the area to the left.  I like a nice clean white page so nothing competes with my pictures.  Mel is also the one that alerted me to the Pages up on the top of the right sidebar.  I added another page last night and added 2 more pictures to the first page.  Thanks Mel, I couldn't have done it without you. 

I sorted my bin of 2.5" strips while I watched the figure skating last night.  I wanted to separate all of the full length strips from the partial lengths.  The bin above is the partial lengths, divided by batik and non-batik. Now when I need a full length strip I will know not to choose these.

I haven't made much progress on the one above except for cutting some more pieces.  I have to wait until I can set my double design wall back in place after the gas company removes the meter on Thursday.
