30 blocks, sashed on two sides, waiting for the final stragglers to wander in. I'm cutting it off at 35 blocks - 5 x 7 layout will result in a top (sans borders) that's 58ish by 80ish. I can manage that. Henny will (hopefully) be the same size. I'll make sure it is if I have to do some blocks myself. The RWb sashing will be easier to piece, slower to cut, probably about the same speed as this one went. This week is jam packed, though, so I'll have to squeeze in my hour/day when I can. 5:30 am maybe?

After yesterday's Green day, I really wanted to share some photos of today's glorious yellow. The Trout Lilies are blooming, the daffs are going great guns. The dogwoods and viburnums are leafing out, and the sun was shining like nobody's business. I wanted to share, but I've put my camera down somewhere and can't find it. I was trying to take a picture of the middle of my back, that's the last time I had my camera. Funny Story: We were enjoying breakfast this morning (new-to-us diner, banana bread french toast - better in theory than practice IMO) when I felt a sharp pinch on my back. I reached around and felt a weird bump on my back. Thinking it was a bug bite or something, I pinched it back, to squeeze out the toxins before they got far. Bring my hand back and a tick(!) went sailing off my fingers onto the floor. Yuck! The picture taking was to determine a) the size and shape of any rash, and b) to make sure buggy's head wasn't still buried under the skin. Everyone here is too skeeved at the thought of a tick head buried in my skin to want to get close enough to make sure there isn't one. My luck I survive the breast cancer scare and develop a big fat case of Lyme Disease.

See ya tomorrow, if I survive the night. ;o)
