Variety is the spice of life.

Wanting to do more than one craft project at once is both rewarding and frustrating, don't you think? I love having a choice of things to do, and being free to do what I like, when I like. But the frustrating part is not finishing one project completely because I've got sidetracked and started something else!
Today at least I made a start on two projects with time frames. The first was my CQ ties block for June.

The theme is Winter, so the ties I picked to use were blue, black, silver and generally cool colours. The bit in the middle with the foggy looking bridge and clouds was part of a tie with a larger picture of just that - a foggy night time scene somewhere that looked like London.

The second thing I did was cut out lengths of tartan fabric required for my next Oz Comfort quilt top.

But while I was doing this, I was thinking of something I saw last night online, where a quilter had used small strips of fabric to make long rows, and sewn them together to make a quilt. It nagged away at my brain until I couldn't wait any longer. It took me about an hour to get out my bag of scrappy strips and made these. What fun - it cleared out one of my scrappy bags, and it will come in useful to make something in the near future!
I had a small furry person for company while I was working.
