Making: Just a binding away from finishing the first Strippers of the Orient quilt (finished ALL the free motion quilting on Sunday. woot!). And maybe 20-30 stitch in the ditch quilting seams away from finishing a baby Log Cabin I made ALL IN ONE (mon)DAY thanks to Eleanor Burns’ Log Cabin in a Day book (I would have finished it entirely had I not gone out to dinner). Also have 8 of 21 pieces sewn together on another Dear Jane block.
Reading: “Beasts of No Nation” by Uzodinma Iweala. It was a Christmas gift.
Watching: Rewatched (or listened to and occasionally looked up at) entire fourth season of Everwood during the Sunday/Monday quilting extravaganzas. Waiting not very patiently for the next new episode of Friday Night Lights which I think isn’t on until next week (you are KILLING ME, NBC). Watched the last half hour of the Globes. Booooring. And hello has Warren Beatty completely lost his mind?
Listening: The Long Blondes, picked up in London. LOVE IT. Paolo Nuttini’s full length. Also UK. Also love it. (It’s even better than the EP I told you about before.) Jim Noir “Tower of Love”. He might be TOO HAPPY for me.
