Work Today

Well, late in the afternoon yesterday I got a call from my old boss. She needed someone to work in the store doing what I did before they let me go. So I said yes, I may be crazy but I loved that job, and would love to go back. They are down a couple of people right now and if they would like me to fill in for one of them I would take it in a heart beat. I figure if I go do this I have a better chance of maybe getting the place.
Okay so on to other things, I have had the pattern for over a year for a large tote, called a Chubby Tote. I collected the fabrics I love and have carried them around for months. Today I cut them out, and I realized that I have enough to make two. I have almost enough home deco. fabrics to make one of just that. Then I also cut enough of my quilting fabrics for another one as well. Oh, and last night I got the top made from the pattern I showed you the other day. We read the pattern wrong and I don't have enough for a backing. So as soon as I figure out what to use for that I will get it quilted and make pictures.
Did I tell you I also had one of those wonderful light bulb moments late yesterday afternoon. I remembered that at quilt festival several years ago I bought some storage boxes for quilt blocks. I have all my past block of the month blocks that are made in them. So I went looking for them in hopes that I might find the missing pink and brown blocks and the missing bluebonnet blocks too. Bingo I found both, so now ,instead of having to find fabric to remake the blocks that are missing I can start getting the tops put together. I have been a busy girl the last few days, and I like it.
Well, I am off for tonight I hope you all have a very quilty week.
