I started Lori's Pink Lemonade Quilt Along!
But in my own defense, it is a small quilt (won't take much time), and I had ALL of these baby half square triangles (HST's) sitting around doing nothing! They were leftover from the blocks I made from my Saturday Sampler blocks.
I trimmed the HST's to 1 1/4" so my churn dash blocks will be 2 1/4" finished, which is exactly half of the size of Lori's. I made a few extra blocks to use up all the HST's, so I might make my quilt layout a bit bigger (as in using more blocks...the quilt will definitely not be BIG!).Step #2 is already posted, so I better check my scrap bag and see what I can come up with for the half blocks.
Good thing I started something new...I almost had to work on a UFO there for a minute! Phew!

You are too funny!! I have been looking at her quilt-along postings but I just have to watch for now.
okay well lets blame it on the weather shall we.....I mean after all with the gorgeous sunshine we have had (here in Ontario, Canada, in JANUARY!!!!) how could you resist something called "Pink Lemonade"???

Oh my goodness! Such tiny adorable blocks!!
LOL....you make me laugh Kathy!
What would we quilters do if we actually had a quilting LAW to follow: "Quilters shall not begin a new project until the final binding stitch has been sewn on a current project."
BAH! :0)
Love the blocks!
