A Little Stitching Time Feels Good

It's been a slow down and rest kind of weekend. I definitely needed it. This is the first weekend in over a month that I've not had to drag out the work computer and look at data.  I was under the weather on Saturday, all the stress and late nights at the computer finally caught up with me, so I  slept most of Saturday afternoon. The sewing room was calling my name by Sunday afternoon. It was nice to get to spend a few hours playing on the sewing machine.  

First on my list was to figure out what had been going on in the sewing room before the never ending work project took over my life. Potions was the last thing in the works, but it's completed and gifted.  The borders are on Unity, but it isn't laying flat, so it needs some additional work before it gets prepped for quilting. I'm not really in the mood to tackle that at the moment. 

The next thing on my list is to assemble the Macaron Mystery quilt. That involved lots of stitching time, so it fit the bill for an afternoon in the sewing room.  The two halves are now all assembled.

All that's left is to piece the center sashing strip.  That's on the agenda for today.  Once that's done, I'll need to decide if getting Unity fixed is next or do I stick with Macaron till it's ready to go out for quilting.  Unity will probably win out. I'll have my direction all sorted out before drafting this week's to do list.  

It feels good to be back in the sewing room and spending some time catching up on blog reading.  I've got a ways to go to catch up with everyone. Linking up with Monday Making, Design Wall Monday, and Patchwork and Quilts.
