I am getting settled into the school routine and I had a plan for the week, so I was productive this week. I got the brick units up off the floor and onto the design wall.
I tried to think better about placement this time. Currently I have darks on the top and right leading towards lights on the left and bottom.

Some colors look very different in the photo than in real life. |
I am going through my scraps filling in color gaps for bricks that I already made with the hope that I will not have bricks made that don't fit in the final plan. We'll see.

Thinking through the color placement. |
It took everything I had not to just keep sewing as I cut pieces, but I had a LOT of grading and lesson planning that had to get done on Saturday. And I knew that if I sewed them all up I would not have anything to do when I needed something simple after school this coming week.

Waiting to be sewn on a school day! |
I prepped and/or sewed every day except Friday. I thought about it, but realized I was so tired I should not be making any decisions and certainly not using sharp instruments! So, I sat in front of the TV and sorted school papers, which was also a much needed task, but no thought required.

No sewing, just sorting. |
