Getting the homework done

I'm about to turn into a pumpkin.  It is two minutes to 12 midnight and I have been up since 5 am.  The day started with our walk, that is Charlie and I, and it started to rain so we turned around and came home.  The rain seemed to clear up so I thought I would mow the lawns.  That out of the way, I did all the paths, had a shower and was ready for the sewing, then it really rained.

I have been putting this off for months.  I just haven't been able to face piecing fabric.  But as it was our patchwork meeting to night I couldn't put it off any longer.  I worked all the rest of the day and finally had the row complete and the measurements matched all those in the instructions.  I pinned it to the previous row and...it didn't fit.

I couldn't go to the patchwork meeting because I hadn't got my homework finished.  So I stayed home and got that wretched thing to fit. Now I can hand it on.  I hope the next row of this add-a-line quilt isn't as stressful as this one!
