That First Box of UFOs

After I blogged last night I was gripped by the spirit and stay up late dealing with that first box of UFOs. I managed to whittle the remaining contents down to 2 projects. One is a small quilt that I really like and will finish. The more I think about it, the more I think I'll just have someone else machine quilt it so I'll only have to bind it. The other is an antique wedding ring quilt which was hand pieced and really needs to be remade so that it can be finished. But, that's a BIG project that can wait for another time. It can just go on the shelf for the time being.

I tied up a lot of little loose ends today. It's always hard to know where to start. I just picked a pile and started. Funny how when I take that approach I tend to get a lot of collateral tasks accomplished, too. So, this all is part of the grand get-organized-and-unpacked project. I also got set up to bind the last big quilt I had machine quilted. It's a Hunter Star quilt, blue and green with gold stars. Very scrappy. Probably the biggest quilt I've made. It's about 120" long which was necessary to accommodate the design. Now I'm getting excited to get it finished. I love the colors and fabrics. I'm going to get a lot of kitty help with this project....

Tonight I started going back to the gym/health club/fitness center/whatever you want to call it. Kennedy. The name of the place is Kennedy. I went to my favorite class, Chi Ball. Sort of a yoga class, but more active. And I did about 20 minutes of intervals on the stationary bike to warm up beforehand. Man, I'm pooped. Hope I'll be able to get out of bed tomorrow.

Life is good.
