Dabbling

 Sometimes after I've made a big effort to finish something I don't know what to tackle next. I've spent some time cutting up shirts and contemplating the UFO list. I ironed a whole bunch of scraps and FQs that I intend to cut up for the strip drawers. I went through the photos I've saved on my phone and computer and I drew up possible new projects in my graph paper book.

In keeping with my resolution to get in touch with all my UFOs I pulled out my Plaid project and cut more pieces for those blocks. 

I can use 3.5" strips for both sections of these blocks, and then just add in 1.5" squares from my overflowing basket of them. I'll sew this lot up tomorrow and then decide where it's going.

Tonight I tackled my 1.25" strips that resulted from the last time I cut up scraps. 

I sorted them all into lengths and, consulting my list of sizes for my Log Cabin blocks, cut them all into pieces for more blocks.

 Oddly enough, though I was cutting sizes randomly, I ended up with enough pieces for 11 blocks exactly. That seems very strange to me, when I wasn't trying to do that. But then I added them to the piles I already have and it became apparent that I need a lot more light pieces. I guess I'll get busy tomorrow cutting up more light fabrics into 1.25" strips.

I don't feel very motivated at night, so I just sewed up the Scrappy Mountain Majesty blocks. 

I unearthed a whole heap of fabric scraps that I can cut more squares out of, so I'll tackle that tomorrow.  Maybe after a couple of days dabbling in this and that I'll have come to a decision about my next project.
