I've been cutting strips of fabric a little at a time for over a week for the next quilt. Today I started sewing them together and cutting them into blocks. Here are a few of the finished ones.
Here is the stack of strips waiting to be sewn together.
A couple days ago I was looking at the reading pile. (Amazing all the kinds of piles there are.) I discovered that I've got seven books going. "A Jack of all trades and a master of none" came to mind. The one I'm most actively reading is Christian Modesty The Public Undressing of America. It's a fascinating book about the theology modesty and the history of immodesty.
The others in progress are Last Days Madness by Gary DeMar (it's very long, but very good); The Establishment and Limits of Civil Government by James Willson; Desiring God by John Piper; Saving Freedom by Jim DeMint; End the Fed by Ron Paul; and Savanna from Savannah by Denise Hildreth (I've already read this one.). Three of them are library books, so I need to concentrate on those. Then I need to try not to do this again. I need to read one at a time. Or maybe two. ;-)

Beautiful material! What pattern are you using?
The pattern is Basket Weave from Debbie Mumm's book Country Quilting Collection. It's got the block show alternating with nine patches.
I usually do one book at a time, but I also have periodicals that are sometimes hard to keep up with. I pass them on to others so don't like for them to be too out of date. The book then may take me awhile to finish. I am also that way with projects. I prefer to finish a project before starting another. Sometimes a request may mean that my project may be interrupted by another for someone else. I don't know how you do so many things!
