I wanted to pack a stitching project for the upcoming waits in airports and long flights I was about to have. Most all of my art stuff was already in storage, so I had to choose from what was right in front of me - some paint rags and a few quilt squares I picked up at the neighborhood vintage store.  I even drew the face of a dog walker on one quilt square to use as a stitch guide for possible embroidery or quilting.
