Thursday

 

Thursday already! This week is flying by. The weather alternates between hot and sunny to gloomy and threatening to rain. There were a few showers this week, but they didn't last long. Rainy weather always gives me a headache, and this time the headaches were accompanied by vertigo. I made it to exercise class yesterday morning, but any sort of fast bending and straightening made me feel like I was going to fall over. I ended up just sort of doing my own thing. 

The weather and the vertigo is preventing me from doing yard work, but there is still plenty to do. I am continuing to work on the overalls. 

I would like to think I will be finished soon. She needs them tomorrow for the pep rally and the football game, but I still need to add the ruffles to the bottom of the hems. I think I can get it done today, and if she wants any changes, she will have to do them herself. I hope to get a picture of them once they are completely finished.

I have lots of customer quilts to finish and got a few done this week. The quilt show is coming up in three weeks, and that always causes a rush for me. I did a couple on Monday

and another on Tuesday.

I finished one on Wednesday and started another, but I don't have pictures yet. 

I was feeling motivated to work on my quilt from the June workshop and did a little in the evenings. This one:

I was happy to find the nine patches I had made for the borders; I found 10 and for some reason I thought I needed 14, so I made four extra. I got 10 of them sewn on the top and bottom.

I am thinking of a way to use the extra four nine-patches, but I think I will need to make two more. That will be the next order of business on this top.
