A Few More Things...

I haven't accomplished much more sewing today.
I've been reading...
have I mentioned lately how much
I love my kindle?
I do, ya know.
Love it.

Did I tell you that I named it?
Yes, my kindle.
It wasn't my idea...
when I registered it with amazon.com,
they asked me to name it.
How could I refuse?

edited to add:  I named it kashmir...as in 'kashmir kindle'.
{grin}

I also watched a movie today...
"Wall Street:  Money Never Sleeps"
with Michael Douglas.
It was okay, and I do like Michael Douglas.
I watched the first "Wall Street"
movie several years ago (made in 1987).
Wanted to watch that one again
before I saw this one...but didn't. 

I made a few Sawtooth Star blocks...
I am following (sort of) the quiltalong
with Cheri Payne of quiltsbycheri .
These blocks measure about 4.5 inches...
fun and easy to put together. 

That's all I have.  

Hope you're having a great weekend.

Something Fun...

Remember yesterday I wrote
that I felt the need to 
"just spend time doing something fun"?
Well, here is the 'something fun'.

It's just 10 inches square... 
which means each half-square triangle
finishes at just over an inch.
I made a mistake with one of the hst's...
and now I just discovered another mistake!
ha!
Guess that serves me right for
shirking my responsibilities, hey?
{sigh}
What's a woman to do.

I never showed this.
Finished it last week...
block twelve of my 'snow days' quilt.
This is the quilt that Sharon is also doing.
Only two more stitchery blocks.
But, there is a lot of stitching to do
on fabric blocks once they're all put together.
I'm getting excited about putting this
together, but it's not going to
happen until well after the holidays.


And, just for something fun...
look what arrived in the mail today!
Kindle Touch.
I am so excited I can barely contain myself!
And, ecstatic that it's the weekend
so I have time to play with it
(once I get it all figured out!).

Have a good weekend!
