- Conducted an archeology dig in the freezer, excavating many pounds of ice and discovering some interesting artifacts (which were quickly thrown away before they could thaw out;
- Chose some new lights (which was quite traumatic - turns out brass is no longer in style!);
- Painted two rooms - only about 10 more to go; and
- Managed to do some sewing!!
Step 3 in the Scrapitude Mystery Quilt involved sewing half square triangles to sets of quarter square triangles - 128 of them. We were to cut the half square triangles from 4 7/8 inch squares. I had about a million charm squares from a series of swaps a few years ago, so I used those. That meant I had to trim them down to size when I was done - but who am I kidding - I would have had to trim them in any case!
Here are about half of the finished pieces. I understand that this is the last "mystery" step and that we should be getting instructions to put it together next week. I'm quite excited to see how this turns out!

I love, love, love how the scrap quilt turns out! Such a great idea using up bits and pieces.
Wow, you inspired me...I think I might go on an arctic dig tomorrow in my freezer...there are things in there I don't remember I am sure. Love your blog!
