Zooming along, until.................

I was having a really relaxing day, sewing the triangles into squares.








I started in the center because it was easier to keep track of where I was.










As I took them out and sewed them into squares I transferred them to a different design wall.  I could just glance back at this and figure out where the pieces that I just sewed were supposed to go.






I was making good progress...........












and even losing track of time I was enjoying this so much.  And then the phone rang.  It was Dad.  He said he had a nosebleed and had to go to the emergency room.  I went right over and could tell it wasn't a bad one and we could take care of it but he wanted to go to the ER.  An hour and a half later we were picking up burgers to take back to his apt. since he had missed his evening meal (and I hadn't eaten either).

I finished sewing blocks when I got home and then started sewing rows.  I was exhausted from the stress (of the ER) so I stopped after 4 rows.  I can't sew the rows together until I add more to the ends of the rows since I need it to be bigger.



In case anybody out there doesn't know what Bindweed looks like, here it is wrapped around one of the tiger lily plants (center of picture).





Here is another view where you can see the ends of the vine reaching out trying to find something else to hook onto.  I will go out today and snip it with scissors and start unwrapping it.
