Today was not the best day for getting things done.  I was all set to add the triangles to the 9 patch blocks that will create the next row on the birthday quilt when I realized that I'd cut the blocks too small.
Several words came out of my mouth, none of them very nice.  After realizing that I need to waste no time, I started looking for new fabric to use for the triangles and....

Found the started quilt that I had been looking for, which is in much better colors and ... started.  I've got so little time to get this one going, but now I have 4 of 12 blocks done and I've started auditioning fabric for the other 8 blocks. 

I'm hoping to find a way to add some brightness to the quilt, because right now it seems a little "old" for the birthday girl in mind, but I am still hoping it turns out great and ... in time!
