Yes,Maggie dusting instead of sewing,very scary.I'm sure it was HST overload.I have 3 rows left of the last border star.Forgive my whining but if I take out the vacuum I'm gonna need someone to come to Naperville for an intervention

Teri, DUST! Yikes! You must have been bored! Hang in there, kid! Just one more month of those half square triangles, and then I am sure we will be griping about flying geese!

...I sympothize with you as I often have the same problem. Just forget about it until tomorrow or when you are looking for something else the pieces with mysteriously reappear...LOL...Keep on quilting....Nan in Massean, NY

I had been doing really well with keeping up but August just messed me all up. I had pulled my next set of fabrics the day after I printed the directions. Last night I figured I'd better at least get the fabric cut and sewn and I can't find what I'd put aside. I did some clean up during the month and put things away. Now I can't even remember what the plan was. I hate it when my brain goes on vacation and leaves the rest of me behind to muddle through

I'm so impressed at those of you that get these Borders stars done so quickly.Each month it takes me longer and longer.I'm very sick of HST.Mine should be done tomorrow but I'm finding I am definitely losing focus.Yesterday I got up to dust while I was sewing.I remember Margo telling us to buy glue sticks and glue for next years' BOM.If I promise to whine less ,Margo can you give us a clue as to what next years project will be?

I finished my August blocks, last week, just got the picture taken. I will post on Show and Tell BOM.
