Crazy days

We had a crazy thunderstorm come out of no where yesterday and bless us with some serious hail.  These are pictures from my front porch during the storm.  My only sadness is that it split one of my tomato plants down the middle.
 (The hail was so thick it almost looked like snow on the ground)

Meanwhile, I finished one baby quilt this week and started to work on the second one when I realized I had messed up.  Do ever just do stupid things that make no sense?
I started sewing on the border when I realized I had completely forgotten to top stitch it.  Maybe it was a Freudian slip since that's my least favorite part of quilting - I don't know.    Anyway, now I get to top stitch it with a partially sewn on border.  I seriously feel like a crazy lady sometimes.
Anyway, stats for the week: New projects - 0 (I was a good girl and focused on ones I've already started)
Completed projects - 1 (yay!)
Currently in progress – 4
Mistakes- 1 big one
Goals: Top stitch and finish baby quilt #2 (and try not to make any other mistakes)

Go check out the other WIP.  There's some fun stuff.

    Oh don't feel bad, I do stuff like that all the time! The other day I sewed on two 30" borders only to remember that I hadn't squared it up and had to undo both seams...yuck!

    Amazing hail! We had some in our area recently too, though not at our house.

    Ahem...have you read my post from yesterday yet? Uh, yeah. I'm there with ya! Won a kit for a quiltalong and miscut ONE piece. So I ordered more. Only to realize I ordered the wrong color. I think it just comes with the territory!
