A tiny bit of progress

This weekend was so completely awesome. We spent the whole two days outside working--my husband putting new doors on his workshop, and me digging up grass to make a new garden bed. After a week of slugging around barfing and feeling generally awful it was a really nice change of pace. Which left me feeling refreshed and ready to start piecing my doll quilt.

This little guy is fun and frustrating at the same time. I had the idea to do tiny patchwork strips for the zig-zags rather than half-square triangles. Well...it works and it doesn't. I didn't take into account the points when I designed it, so they're all going to be sort of blunt. Oh well. I still think it looks nice. Two rows down, four to go!
