Progress while procrastinating

I ought to be working on the NLCQG challenge quilt. The theme is "Name That Tune," that is, "take a song and quilt it!"  I have the tune picked out. I have fabrics pulled. I have considered one design and then another, in my head.  The challenge will be revealed at the May 5 meeting, so I have two months and a week to go (with a lot going on between now and then).
Meanwhile, last week I pulled 2.5 strips from the basket below the cutting table.  They turned into this 60 x 74 quilt, which I finished last evening.  The Scrappy Bargello
is a Bonnie Hunter design.

Now, back to the challenge drawing board....
