what to do, what to do...

This past week has been rough.  my dear hubby's grandma passed away on Thursday last week and will be laid to rest today.  I wish there was some way that I could get to the funeral and make it home to get my son off the bus, but I don't see any way that is possible. With my luck I would get hung up in traffic or with a traffic ticket and well neither of those would be a good situation.

I'm going to try and pass some time with sewing therapy.  I don't have a specific pattern I am going to work on, but I have a box with thousands of 2.5" squares in it. 

 I'm going to sort some out maybe or maybe not and just start sewing some HST's (half square triangles) and see where I end up.  i have seen some cute project using HST's and I know that I will need a lot more of them than most of the projects I have seen, but it will use up some of the scraps and who knows I might just end up with a Christmas present for someone or if I can't think of a good person for it to go to then I might just do a giveaway here.   

I'm also still trying to come up with something that doesn't look to 'baby' for my son for Christmas out of these fabrics.  I finally hit me that he will be 5 1/2 come Christmas and my inspiration print is more suited for maybe a 2-3 year old :(

I have a yard of all the fabrics except for the large Checkered print and I only have a half yard of that.   I know I will have to buy some more fabrics to complete the project because he has a full sized bed and I want the quilt for his bed.
