starting to piece the blocks

Even the best laid sewing plans can get waylaid when the unexpected happens. Like, say, your three year old getting into the recycling and spraying clorox in his face and getting it into his eye. Thank goodness it was not serious, and with some antibiotics for a scratched cornea, we were very very lucky that nothing more serious happened. But, stuff like that tends to push sewing to the back burner. Add to it a husband that unexpectedly had to travel this week, and. . . well. . .you have only the very beginnings of a baby quilt to show for it.
