Mini Raincheck

Do you ever have times when you are completely overwhelmed with the amount of work you have to do? I'm kind of feeling that way right now with the Christmas season right around the corner. So naturally, I decided to start another project, this mini Raincheck quilt. 

I think every once in a while I need a project that will go quickly so I can feel like I am accomplishing something.  I've spent hours cutting up a pile of jeans into triangles for quilt tops and it was getting quite monotonous.  I have a huge stack of jeans just sitting in my basement and I got the crazy idea that I was going to use them up to make picnic throw blankets for all of our siblings for Christmas.  I'll let you know how that little project goes...

But for now, I'd better get back to cutting.  And admiring my mini quilt.
