I have not had much time to sew during the week this week since I have been working alot. However, next week I have very few hours due to some weird scheduling things at work it is looking like this may be the first summer I don't get enough hours. While I am stressing on how the bills are going to be paid, at least I have plenty of fabric, thread and patterns so I can at least sew in all that free time!
In other good news, my cousin Kai Len, who lives in the Amsterdam, surprised me with some fabric and a card! So sweet of her to think of me. My dad's oldest brother had four daughters (we always called them the California cousins) and I didn't meet them until I was around thirty--in fact I still haven't met the youngest one. These four gals are truly a blessing in my life, they have a fabulous mother and are really grounded, smart, beautiful gals and are always uplifting everyone around them. It really made my day that Kai took the time and effort to choose this fabric and send it all the way to the States for me!

Love your new fabrics! What a wonderful squishy surprise. I tend to agree with you about the HST's. Not sure they are the answer. My go-to is always the pinwheel block but perhaps some fun 4-patches?
love how the medallion looks with those hsts. Really sets it off.

Pretty new fabrics!
I love the colour in the HST's. What if you played with the arrangement of them to see if there is a different way of using them that makes you happier.

Love your fabrics from Amsterdam!
I find achieving contrast with yellow is difficult.
The quilt is coming along nicely.
