Quilting Mojo - Got It?

It seems like a lot of quilters have lost their mojo lately and I have too, but not on every project.  There is always some project that I can work on, and move along the process.  If I can't figure out something, I tend to stall for a while and work on something else.  

What usually inspires me is a small project.  I started this small quilt Thursday, before I left town for a long weekend, and worked on it more last night when I got home.  It's a replica of an old doll quilt, pictured in the book "Childhood Treasures", by Merikay Waldvogel.  Here's the start of it:

And here's the picture of the old quilt in the book:

If you have this book (below), it's on page 89, and the finished size is 18" by 15 1/2".  I did some math, and decided to make each square finish at 3 inches, which means the corner hsts are 3/4 inch.  I do love blue and white quilts, and this one is fun.  I hope to finish the top today.

The last picture is of the front hall, with my cloth cat silently on watch over another little doll quilt displayed on a doll dresser.  I hope you have quilting mojo, or if not, try a small project to get it back soon.
