Relaxing on the Deck

A quiet Tuesday afternoon finds me caught up on my work and at a midpoint with my sewing tasks.

I have sewn four blocks of the guild's block of the month quilt for the next guild year.

I have sewn the last twelve scrappy bargello sets for the last twelve blocks.  I am making a total of 49 blocks.  I recently decided that the 36 block size would not be quite big enough for the bed I want the quilt to cover.

I have sewn four of the nine pieces on my Cactus Flower table runner's outer piece.

I needed to take a break. Besides which, the afternoon heat has gotten into the house and with very little breeze, it is tough to cool it off without the air conditioning being turned on and that is something I am trying to avoid as long as possible!

So here I sit and rest until the urge to sew again strikes. 

How are you spending this afternoon?  Hopefully on something fun and quilty related!
