Piece Out

I have a piecing problem.





I can't stop piecing lately. 


I am trying to blame the clear bins.


They mock me with their cut blocks and cut pieces.


Today?


This fabric (Winter's Lane by Kate & Birdie for Moda) is the latest pieced top.  I am patterning testing and can't wait to share the final qulit!



With this addition, I officially have eight pieced quilt tops.



 And two pieced tops for friends.

TEN.  TEN QUILT TOPS

And I apologize for all the Instagram photos. I've been too busy piecing to take nice photos.

I have never, in my quilting life, ever had this many pieced tops.  I am not sure other than that all the cut blocks mock me.  I have to admit. The heat in the garage right now IS intimidating. But as the Army ROTC cadre used to say when we were training?   Suck it up and drive on.  

At least that is what I am going to try.
I am chaining myself to Ole Betsy this week.  

Anyone else have the problem of being stuck in a piecing rut?

  2. can you chain yourself to Betsy for short spurts, and alternate it with something to cool off?
