Not Happy Feet, happy grandchildren! I brought back these two adorable penguin hats for my little grandsons, Ariel and Itamar. Don't they look cute?
And yes, it's 2:50 a.m. here in very rainy Jerusalem. I tried to beat the jet-lag, really I did. Went to bed at 10:00 tonight. But at 12:00 midnight, there I was, awake again. But not a total loss--I got another scrappy block pieced. I'm following Bonnie Hunter's Scrappy Trips Around the World pattern. And I'm loving it. In her introduction to the pattern, she say that any fabrics will work for this quilt--anything goes! And you know what, I see she is right. This is really a great pattern for the middle of the night; I'm too tired to do anything more than pick up random strips of fabric--no fussy matchy-matchy for me! I've got five blocks pieced already, and didn't even have to think about it.
Haven't decided what size this is going to be, so I guess I'll keep going until I run out of strips.
