Candy Coated Quilt in progress

After all the stress of last week with our son I finally was able to get a little sewing done.  Have I ever mentioned that truly sewing is my stress reliever?  I actually debated on bringing my machine to the ICU because there was plenty of room and otherwise I was just watching cable T.V. I just needed the repetition of sewing some straight lines and seeing some progress.

I now have 5 rows done for my candy coated quilt and the remaining strips all cut out.  9 more left to sew together.  That is 1/3 of the way to having the top finished. Yeah!



Each size strip is packaged in a gallon ziploc baggie and marked.  I'll just keep plugging away and break out this project when I need some mindless sewing.

Here's a couple other versions of this quilt to check out.
