Quilting Soothes the Nerves

So--I was on the phone with the California Dept. of Public Health to TRY to figure out what I can do about a smudged date on my birth certificate. The guy said, "I'll look at the microfilm and call you RIGHT back." Well, long story short, I waited 5 hours for that call.

While I was waiting, and waiting, and getting angrier, and more frustrated, and so on--I decided to calm myself by starting a new Block of the Month quilt. I decided to use some really cute and slightly unconventional Christmas fabrics.

Both of these blocks are from Quilter's Cache.

This one is called Housewife:




This one is called Grandmother's Cross:



I think I'm really going to like this Christmas quilt!
