my lilacs are later bloomers-deep purple |
This is the start of a busy week. I have some knitting to finish for a baby shower next Sunday, some plants that need to be put in the garden, binding on a challenge piece that needs finishing and of course I have to pack and make my shopping list for CQA.
I head out on Thursday for my friend's house and on Friday a van load of us are going to CQA in Toronto. It is a juried show of quilts from across Canada but also there will be vendors to see and buy things from, all under one roof.

poppies are starting to bloom too |
It is a beautiful sunny day here but the black flies are so thick, I just can't stand to be out in them. They seem very bad this year. We are hoping with a few hot days,,,their numbers will dwindle. So I will be indoors getting things finished.
Yesterday was World Wide Knit in Public day and my friends and I went to the local Farmer's Market where they had rocking chairs for us. It was a fun morning. Unfortunately I have no pics but I am getting better....at least the camera was with me!! bahaha

more to sew |
I will be hopping over to my friend
Kathy's blog and doing some slow stitching with her today. See what others are up to today. Are you a hexie fan...she is looking for others and trying NOT to become one of us!!! Let's see if we can convert her!!Here is a project I have been working on for awhile now...it is definitely a long long term project!!
How did I miss knitting in public day?!?!?!
ReplyDeleteLove your hexie project... it's gorgeous!
ENjoy your stitching today!
Your hexie project is so lovely - as are your photos! For the flies, I use Rescue! Disposable Fly Trap. Fill it with water, hang it up (not close to the house as it has an odor) and the flies go inside! It's like a "Hotel California"! Beautiful projects! Thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteIt seems you have some projects to keep you busy, the hexie project is coming along nicely. I tend to bring my camera along but manage to forget to snap a photo I guess we are just having too much fun. The rocking chairs at the Farmers Market sounds like fun.
ReplyDeleteLovely hexie project. Looks like you have a lot done already. Enjoy! ;^)
