Or she will by 5:45 PM CDT. And not a moment too soon. And it looks like she’s bringing some nice weather, at least to our neck of the woods … weekend temperatures will be in the 60s.
I’ve got 5 of the 7 rows of Kiss blocks sewn together. I need to sew on the last two (they’re already sewn together, so I have just one seam left to stitch) … then I need to check all the outer edge seams to make sure that none of them have worked loose, followed by stay stitching along the outer edge so nothing will work loose while I’m quilting on it. I’ve got the backing, washed and dried. I’m just not sure when I’ll get to make my quilt sandwich as I’ll be at DD’s today and perhaps tomorrow … I’m watching the Ts while she attends a homeschooling convention in St. Louis. I’m hoping to be able to share a picture of at least the top by the end of the weekend.
DH and I spent yesterday morning doing some overdue shopping for some home improvements. We’d been talking for some time now about upgrading a few things around the house, and we finally decided to take care of them. I’ve got a couple more on my “to-do” list but am still searching for them.
My half yard bundle from Fat Quarter Shop arrived yesterday … it’s like Christmas all over again when something quilty is delivered.
I hope that whatever you have planned for today includes a little something that brings you joy ... have a great day!

Can't wait to see your Kiss top! You do keep busy girl! Spring has come and now I can't wait for the weather to feel like it. Monday was wonderful but then it turned very cool again with possible snow coming our way. Looks like I'll be walking inside again today ;( Have a great day!

ReplyDeleteNothing better then fun mail delivery! :)

ReplyDeleteLove your neutrals you got! I need to invest in some fat quarter sized neutrals for an upcoming quilt :) I may check them out if you got a good price there!
ReplyDeleteHappy Spring to you as well! Love that little clip art you found to herald in spring! Enjoy time with your T's but I sooo hope to soon see a flimsy shot too! Have a blessed Friday! Kathi
Great choice of fabrics. Enjoy the T time.
ReplyDeleteI think I could go crazy, in something called the fat quarter shop. :)
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely day and enjoy spring! It sounds nice.
I believe we are all ready to welcome the arrival of spring weather. Fun mail delivery!
ReplyDeleteI got a fun bundle from the Fat Quarter Shop this week too! Now if I just had my sewing room set up...
ReplyDeleteSo glad Spring has arrived for you but it certainly hasn't here. It has rained, rained and rained some more. And, the temps are cool but I think the sun is suppose to shine on Monday, so perhaps it will get here.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to hear about your home projects. I'm ready for our home project to be finished and us move in. It's been a long endeavor.
Happy weekend!
Hooray for Spring! Glad you happy about the item your ordered. We are talking about doing some home improvements too. Wishing you success!
