Anyway. The men have four concerts a year, three of them in consecutive weekends. Yesterday was the first concert in a town about two hours away. Due to massive coughing on my part, I stayed home. So in essence, I was a "single girl." (Do some of you see where this is going?) As to the age parameters of what actually constitutes a "girl," let's not go there, okay?
I'm making twelve blocks, nine from Hope Valley fabric, and three from solids. The Hope Valley rings are all sewed together (but not pressed)
and then I started cutting out the solids. *sigh* I hope the solids don't overwhelm the prints.
And let me take just a second to jump up and down because Elizabeth posted the tutorial to make her mini bookshelf quilt.

Did you complete any projects this weekend? Or start any new ones? Link up at That Girl, That Quilt and let us all see what you've been up to.
P.S. Do you need some free fabric to start a new project? (I'm claiming the fifth on that question...), Fat Quarter Shop is sponsoring a giveaway here.

Nice progress! Hope Valley is one of my favorites and I really like the idea of combining solid rings with them.
Hope you are feeling better!
Jennifer :)
Love that mini bookshelf! Yeah, I think you should start another project. ;)
Love the colors you have picked. Hope it all turns out beautifully.
Love your blog post title and the all the directions you are meandering are looking good! Hope the cough is getting better by now.
Hope you are much better now. I have a "girls" weekend coming up too. Hubby is fishing with his pals. My best pal and I are having a quilting all nighter! Woo-Hoo!!
Bummer to hear you were sick, especially over such a nice weekend! I had a cold but it wasn't as bad as your illness. I had to spend most of the weekend working on homework, so it was more fun seeing all your wonderful productivity in the sewing room! Feel better soon!
