Snowflake Shimmer Progress

     I feel like that kid in high school who snuck in to class a bit late and only got half their homework done.  I could say the dog ate my homework but I don't have a dog.  We are however in what I believe are called the dog days of summer.  It's been stinking hot and humid here for the past couple of weeks.  It's o.k. when I'm at work where it's air conditioned but we aren't air conditioned at home  and it's hard to get the energy up to do anything more than lie around doing sudokus and reading murder mysteries.

     For most of the summer we are o.k. without air conditioning as our house is surrounded by trees and maintains a comfortable temperature. 

     I did get a start on cutting my fabric for the Snowflake Shimmer quilt along before my energy fizzled out last night.
Here's where I'm at.



     The weather should get slightly cooler next week and then slightly cooler again the following week so I'm hoping to catch up with all my quilting goals then.  I'm joining all the other quilters at the Snowflake Shimmer link up on Yvonne's Blog, Quilting Jet Girl.  I'm thankful for link ups to help keep me on task.

It is so easy to slack off when it is really hot or really cold. Both make me tired and in need of a nap. Lol. Good start on getting your cutting, I'm sure you'll catch up in no time. 😊

It is so exciting for me to see all the fabrics ready to piece. I look forward to seeing this turn into a quilt!
