rain rain rain

It's been gray like this all day. I had to walk to class in the rain today And, even though I had an umbrella, I still got wet. Mostly because I was trying to shield my backpack (which was holding my laptop) with my umbrella rather than my head. Usually though, I love the rain. I think I could live in Seattle. Maybe I should visit first.

Now for a bit of sewing:

I love piecing blocks like this - no pattern, just random. These are destined to be a birthday gift. Not the blocks themselves, of course, but the quilt they will become. Can't wait to start putting it together!
