Hi Sweet SarahJane. I hope you have a nice Sunday and get a lot of sewing done. Sarah, I have left a few PM's to you in Pogo.
For a 'Sunday' hubby and I are up early.
I went into my quilt room to look at the 'quilting' I did yesterday, and lol it is actually not bad for a first day 'on da job'.
I know what and how I need to do things different to improve easy on the machine and improve my quilting 'strokes'.
It is very sunny here. Nice and cool at 8:15, so it might be another scorchers today in the 90's. Jeff and I were sitting outside on our patio late last night. It is nice and quiet in our neighborhood at night. Tonight we hope to go out on our patio earlier and maybe even have our dinner out there.
I have some dishes and laundry to do, and take care of all the birdies. Their water dishes needs frequently filled with it being so hot and dry. Spunky (their Dad) is doing a good job of keeping the 2 chicks fed.
After all that, i think I'll go back to my LA and finnish what i have done so far. THEN, I'll pull out an old 'white' sheet for top and bottom with batting in between and a dark thread in my LA.
I'll check back-in later.

Hi Tul and Sarah,
I finished my binding last night on my Roman Holiday quilt and our friends are leaving in a few hours. I've just started a Charm Party Tote, not sure how far I'll get today.
Have a great Sunday.

Re: Sew in Sunday May18
good morning...
Just popping in to say hi. I am going to go finish the camping quillow that has a suede cloth backing. The one with the bear turned out cute I think Jeremy will love it.
The concert last night was wonderful but it was annoying to see this woman with her program over her cell phone sending text messages during the symphony. She was in seats that cost $68 a seat why did she bother.
oh well...time to get some iced tea and put my glasses on and then sew

LOL Carolyn, nope Jeff is not coming along. He knows with whom I'll be with and feels it's safe to turn me on my own to the 'lions' Den.
Jet (my niece is coming with me, and Alina will be driving in to LB as well.
I just finnished doing my chores and taking care of the birds. Went to oil and clean my machine and replaced the needle.
Am just taking a short breather here before I head back up to my quilt room.

Re: Sew in Sunday May18
Happy Sunday to all.........just got home from Wallieworld & grocery store. We stopped at a new pizza place for lunch & it was wonderful. So now DH is out playing with his new riding lawnmower & I have peace & quiet to do the binding on a quilt. I've been putting it off for a few days & decided that IT WILL get finished today. It's nice and sunny out, but windy & still a little cold. Thank goodness I haven't planted anything yet, there might be a freeze tonight.
