So, due to the weather I’ve been lazy and slothful. Gray cloudy rainy days tend to do that to a person. I did have some friends over on Friday night to sew, and that was fun. I made slow and steady progress on my Single Girl Quilt. Many of the people doing the Quilt along are flying! I am not however, and I’m okay with that. I have two “test” blocks I’ve done now with the curved piecing. I just pin it like crazy and that seems to work okay.
Another thing I did all weekend long was watch Downton Abbey on Netflix. It is a pretty good show, I think the acting is awesome, and I kept laughing out loud in some parts. It is along the lines of a Jane Austen movie with the intrigue and characters. Kind of slow and subtle, I like it. Has anyone else been watching that show? It is put out by PBS.
This week is the Portland Modern Quilt Guild meeting! Is it just me, or did a month just fly by and I didn’t even realize it??

I really like your Single Girl progress! Don't worry about how far anyone else has gotten - you're doing great! I missed Downton Abbey and am sorry that I did. I've heard so many great things about it. Maybe I can find it on On Demand....
I didn't know Downton Abbey had made it to the states yet. It aired here in UK a few months ago and apparently they are already filming series 2. I love period dramas like this. Good luck with the single girl quilt - I'm not making it but love seeing everyones progress xx
I love your fabrics for the single girl! I have 2/12 blocks complete, so no worries about feeling behind... I realized that some people just fly through, and it's okay!
I love your new quilt. It's been fun to see everything you've been up to lately. You've really been productive.
I started watching Downton Abbey after seeing your post. I was really enjoying it, until towards the end when the alternative lifestyle was shoved into my face! I was stunned and sick. Needless to say, it has prompted me to write my government leaders and plea that they de-fund PBS. I don't think that my tax dollars should have to go to support such shows.
DtA is unknown to me as a series, even I have seen some commercials of it. You have a nice quilt coming.
