I was up early as usual, but once I finished my 'coffee' (and the Sunday crossword puzzle) I decided to get right to work sewing even before going out for a soak.  

I really really really thought I was being careful, but as you can see I didn't orient the brown scrap piece correctly... and so my second strip turned out 1/2" wider.

IF I drank I might be starting earlier today....

And while it's easily fixable at this point, I do so hate frog stitching. 

It not only takes longer than sewing, but really slows down my momentum!

Where are those sewing fairies when I need them? <G>

Okay.... back to work, right?

or placemats...
