Square Deal

I dreaded doing today’s block and with good reason. The math I did yesterday was apparently wrong, but it took me until noon to see that it wasn’t going to work. Being as stingy as I am with fabric I didn’t want to waste everything I’d done so I adjusted the pattern to more or less fit the math. The name of this block bears no resemblance to how it ended up.

I’m not sure why I didn’t want to recut the fabric – the patterned fabric is one that made the rounds at the Guild as pretty much the ugliest fabric available; in fact, we had a couple of challenges just to use it up (and I still have some left).

Now that the block is done I’m quitting. I have a good chance of finishing my book today. And I know I’m not supposed to be stressing about my productivity.
