Busy week - but not quilting!

I've been working hard the past few days - but not getting a lot of quilty stuff done.   I did do this block for a Pizza box block exchange for one of my quilt groups.  Hope Judy likes it!  It is very bright and cheery!  In this exchange, everyone supplies the fabric and the blocks are to be 12"x12" finished, and you can't see your blocks until everyone else in the group has made one for you. Can't wait to see mine! 

I've done a lot of frogging on a quilt I'm quilting - got a pleat in the batting.   I've discovered that for every 5 minutes of quilting, you can do hours of unsewing!!! Sure does cut into the time I get to play in the studio.


One of the other things I'm attempting to do in my studio is to fold and organize my fabric.  This is an example of one bin of fabrics - I have collected batiks for a long time, and started out folding them neatly and putting them in this bin.   But I've used some of them and for some reason they have gotten out of hand.  I need the fabric fairies to visit my studio and clean it up!!!
