candy-canesNow that the “Insanity” quilt is finished it is time to get back to work on the second one and also to spend more time quilting on the Christmas Baltimore Album, which I admit has not been touched much in the last week or so.  Last night I got two blocks pieced – the first couple on this row are very easy and only took me about an hour each to piece while I was watching tv.

Row 9 (I) blocks one and two of Insanity Revisited.  I love this cut n' press mat.  I have it on my cutting table and use it for pressing most of my quilting blocks that I do.  I can't fit a large ironing board in here.  The only problem I have had with these cutting mats/ironing pads is that they always warp for me (this is my third one) and so I do not use the cutting mat on the opposite side and it doesn't lay flat and is harder to cut on,

It is very chilly this morning and I am going to wait a little while hoping  it will warm up before I go outside to do somethings.
