It focuses the mind, gets the foot to the sewing machine pedal and before I know it I am almost half way through the blocks for the birthday quilt. Well, it's either the deadline or just plain avoidance of the work I need to get finished up! Only yesterday I told a friend that I was focused on finishing a report I need to write for work and that there'd be no blocks made until it was finished. And here I am a mere day later - and I seem to have finished 16 blocks.... 
Either way it seems to be working - I'm clearly going to make the quilt deadline.I also keep pondering this little pile of trimmings. Normally I would toss these without a second thought, but they look so appealing I've been wondering just what I could find to do with them.
These thoughts, I willingly concede, are pure report writing avoidance. So easy to spot the life time habits of a procrastinator!

The quilt is really coming along... you are a good person with deadlines!!!
I agree, those little left over strips look wonderful, I definately wouldnt be throwing them out. Such beautiful colours. Maybe a little strippy quilt or even some fabric weaving like Jude Hill does.
Well done with your deadline and keep that head down and foot on the pedal.
