More Smith Mountain Morning blocks

Yesturday I did some more of the Smith Mountain Morning blocks.  I have to assemble four blocks per week.  For this week I did four blue star blocks.  As it was going so well, I decided to get a head start on next weeks blocks.  I finished those as well!!  Eight star blocks ready to add to the pile of completed blocks.


It was going so well, that I decided to take out four more blocks, but this time the chimney blocks.  Of the four, I got two done.   All in all it was a good day for working on these required blocks.  I was able to tick off ten blocks off my list!  


After getting these all done, my brain was getting distracted.  I cleaned up my rulers and put that sticky grip tape on the commonly used rulers.  Then I was looking for other things to do.....one of the ideas was starting another quilt....and it was a very strong urge...   Even during those same thoughts, I knew that the idea was not a good one, but I couldn't rid myself of it.....  This time though, I decided to get out of my studio, go upstairs and do some cooking instead.  It worked.....for now....lol.    

I am trying to be striker on myself when it comes to starting new quilts.  I am very serious about getting my list of works in progress down.  Starting new quilts is like a dopamine hit for me, and my brain knows it, and tries to waylay me all the time.  I averted it this time!!  (insert rolling of my eyes....lol)  

Take care everyone.
