ONE DOWN - HUNDREDS TO GO!

I picked up my Stacked Baby Bricks last Tuesday evening and have finished the binding - it's all done!  
I've made 14 Hunter's Star (aka Indian Arrowhead) blocks so far.   I had the indigo blue fabric on hand and used part of my Pickle Patch Gift Certificate to purchase the other fabric.  I'm using the foundation paper piecing technique to help me achieve as much accuracy as possible.  The quilt will have to tell me about a border when I get to that point.  I'll probably hand quilt it so it won't be totally finished for some time.
I tried setting the date/time on my camera and put the date before the month without realizing it so I really took these pics on 03/11/13.   I corrected it after I noticed the error.

Cooking and cleaning surely does interfere with my quilting time - not that I go overboard with cooking or cleaning!  I enjoy cooking but I'm usually anxious to get back to my sewing machine.
