Be careful what you are doing, you miss one week, turn around and it is July. Before we know it, those little white flakes will be falling again!
It has been a productive week. The fourth of my secret project is well on its way to being a finished top. I also completed the machine quilting on a lap quilt. I just have to sew the binding down by hand. And those knitted socks I was working on with a June 30 deadline...they got finished and on June 29! Horray me!! My UFO knitting basket is getting full, time to clear out more of them also.
The garden is growing but somethings are taking their sweet time...good thing I don't need to make pickles this year because my cucumbers don't seem to be doing too well. Should have lots of tomatoes and peas!!
I had a zoom day yesterday with some quilting friends. We connected in the morning and found out what each was working on. We met again after lunch and then finished the day at 4. By then we could see if we actually got anything accomplished or not. I was working on units for a block. I sewed one up and didn't like how it looked. It was good timing as I asked the girls and got lots of advice as to what to do. So last night there was a little more designing done and with the units I have I can make the layout of the blocks a little different and use up what I have. I can even use the extra pieces that I cut too many of. I haven't shown these quilts but will have lots of pictures to show once they are finished and delivered.
Today I will be checking in with Kathy and see what slow stitching she is working on. I find that Sunday afternoons are the perfect time for some slow stitching....while watching the Nascar races. I became a fan after my hubby started to watch the races. It was something we did together and I look forward to the races on Sundays. It reminds me of him and makes me smile.
