So I finally grabbed a little time tonight to do some ironing. Usually I can't because my nutty little pup demands to be in the same room with me at all times so going downstairs is done in five minute intervals.

 

I've decided my ironing board needs more padding. I'm pressing and I can feel the metal frame of the ironing board. I though about getting a new cover but I'm thinking of just buying some extra padding and fitting it underneath. I LOVE this ironing cover and don't really want to replace it. Here's a nice little pile of freshly <re> ironed strips of fabric.

Here I start to layout the squares. I'm not completely sure of the pattern I'll use.

Lovely Japanese fabrics from my lovely sister Dawn! This is called "basic nine patch block".

I'm still thinking of putting a basic color square in between. It all depends on how large this ends up being with the squares I have going now. I purchased a blue fabric to use for this purpose but I'm still not sure of the color. I do kind of think it needs something to break it up. If I do add something it will be called "nine patch with divisions"

I still have many squares to finish!
