Happy Wednesday to you. I spent yesterday inside, all day sewing~or at least a good portion of the day, but also did some cleaning. As I put this pic on the post, I realized that my picture taking abilities with the IPhone need to be improved, or at the least not rushed. I took the photo to send to my dear friend/quilting mentor/traveling companion Barbara, without any thought of posting it here. The top is not quite finished, I still have to put a 1" border on before I layer it and quilt it. I had thought to machine quilt it, but it is bigger than I anticipated-so it will be hand quilted. So much easier, faster and more enjoyable for me. This was a kit I got in New England, to remember our trip by. I love the pattern and fabrics; I did add some fabric from stash.
I had hoped to have it finished in time to enjoy before Black Friday rolls around, but now that is looking doubtful. I did finish hand quilting my four placemats and hope to get the binding on today; at least those will be able to stay out for a week or so.
This morning hubby and I will head to the gym; I can honestly say that while I don't get that rush from working out like many get from running, I do look forward to going(unless it is snowing outside). I know that it will help my bones get stronger and benefit me in many different ways, especially during winter when the lack of activity shows in my weight.
I hope you have a great day today!
Joy to you.
Noreen
