What to do What to do

Well I started last night with laundry and did not get it all done but then do you ever get done with laundry. I been sewing on my charity quilt project it was a kit that I got in the mail from Quilts for Kids & Downy. That is getting closer to being done. I need to work on cutting out the binding for Kandi’s quilt and get that sewn on. I have been procrastinating on that one could be getting that king size quilt maneuvered around to sew the binding on is just not that appealing right now.

Why you ask? The weather turned like hot and humid up in the 90’s and just. That is the excuse for the day or so. Maybe this weekend I have a long weekend and so  it will be nice to take it easy and get a little bit done around the sewing room and the temps are to be a little better for the next few days and I should take advantage of that.

I also hope to run over to K & K garden and take advantage of the Memorial Day sale they are having. I need some inspiration to get at weeding the flower beds and I think that might help do that.

Hope everyone is having a nice day.

May 19th Anniversary

Well today is our Anniversary hard to believe that it has been 31 years  that we got married. Makes you wonder where the time has gone.

We went out for supper and had a nice night. I spent the afternoon working on a small quilt that I got the kit for from Quilts for Kids and Downy site. It went together fast then it set for a little bit and now I am working on quilting it. Then to put the binding on and send it back.  The kits make up cute quilts and have just about everything you need to get it done and sent back.

It is late and tomorrow is another work day so time to close down the computer and head off to bed.

Camping in May Working on embroidery

Well we had a nice weekend and camped this weekend. Had a nice time quiet weekend with lots of relax time. That was nice we had a wonderful weekend the weather on Saturday was great. Plus we took some time Saturday AM and went to Barnes and Nobel and just spent some fun time looking around and looking at the books and magazines there.

Then over the weekend I worked on an embroidery panel for a quilt top. There is a saying that says thru the woods to Grandmother's house we go. Then two other panels of woods and etc that you might see on a trip to grandmothers house along with some quilt blocks. I don't work on it super regular but try to put in a little time on and off.

Today I am going to go help someone one with her computer it seems like a few things are messed up and she cannot figure out what happen or how to get it back. So I will go and see what it is and then go from there.

I hope to spend a little time in the flower beds later this afternoon it is a sunny nice day out not to hot but not to cool. Cannot ask for better I guess.

Pre Mother's day

Not a lot planned for tomorrow.  Had to cover up plants tonight we are under freeze warning and I sure would hate to have to replace the perennials out there. There are two Clematis that I would hate to lose and my mouse ear hosta. Plus the lili plant sure hope the frost does not put it all under that I did not cover up.

Since there were more plants out there then I have sheets to deal with. Oh well such is life and frost is also part of it all.  I hope to divide the bleeding heart after they get done blooming they have taken over there spot and filled it so full it is over shadowing some of the other plants near by.

Tomorrow I hope to get the final border on one of the quilts and start the quilting on the Downy Charity quilt kit I received. I will try and get a picture of that as it goes along. That top is so bright and fun to look at.
