My "to-do" list yesterday was longer than my arm!  Of course, rather than tackle it, I hid away in my sewing room and sewed together a pixelated heart quilt for my shop window.
  | 
| made from 2" squares - I hope to get it quilted before February | 
Then, because I have so many precut squares and because I had a plywood leaf made for my secondhand (leaf-less) shop table, I spent a couple hours Mod Podge-ing squares onto the leaf to make it more appealing.
  | 
| Before the plywood leaf - this is a typical Thursday night at my shop and it is WAY too crowded around the table! | 
  | 
| The new plywood leaf added LOTS of room (36" on each side), but it's kinda blah.  And rough to the touch. | 
  | 
| I much prefer the color that the fabric adds to the leaf! | 
  | 
| Don't tell, but I stood on the table to get this shot.  TSP stands for The Stitchin' Post, which is the name of my shop. | 
Lots and lots of squares used, and I didn't have to cut anything!  THIS is why I cut my scraps into precut sizes - when I just want to sew, I can just sew!

What a fabulous way to use those scraps - perfect finish for a table in a shop. And it is so nice to see your shop. Happy looking group, too.
