SUPPER CLUB - Sunday, Feb 19th

Good morning,

Having a quiet weekend. Yesterday I pieced a few quilt backs. Today I'll do one more and then some UGH-lies - bathrooms, floors, bedding. I'm hoping Bill starts quilting Bigfoot today. We found a cool Bigfoot quilting pattern and he downloaded it to his Q-bot.

Talked briefly with Antonio last night. Autumn is so tired all the time. It takes as much energy being pregnant as a full time job. And she already had a full-time job! She isn't allowed to lift more than 15 pounds. They spent yesterday setting up their crib. Only 5-1/2 weeks to go! No name yet, that we know of.

BECCA - glad you are getting in your walks. Mine have been on hold due to bad weather. My walking partner just got home from her winter travels on Friday, so we'll be hitting the trail tomorrow morning finally. Scottie will be a happy happy dog! Good to hear all is going well with your baby, too! You're going to have a busy week. I'll be thinking of you!

VELDA - a busy few days at your house! Do you tie the ends of the ropes to keep them from raveling and to keep them in place? Cabbage rolls are good. The filling was hamburger and rice. I used to make them in my first life. Haven't now for 40 years. Maybe I will again one day. Your quilt plan is to use the pattern for the Feb blocks? Have you thought about color values? Like having all the center squares be dark or light, next round, light, med? Outer round? You might get a secondary pattern by doing that.

LORI - what a great sounding retreat! What are you taking to work on? And eggs and toast is my favorite meal - if you add hashbrowns. :D Bacon puts it over the top.

CAROL - You're having some good quilty days, too! You going back today? When is 'take down"? How many quilts are on display?

I think we might have homemade split pea soup today. Or, perhaps baked chicken, rice, and salad. I will let Bill make a choice when he gets up. It's only 0500 and he usually sleeps later than I do. If I give him his choice, it will be the chicken. I may as well get up and pull it out of the freezer now. :lol:

What's YOUR choice?

Good Morning Mary and all the others.
How exciting for baby news getting so close. Is Autumn working part time? So do they know, boy or girl? You mentioned picking name.
We had biscuits and gravy yesterday, so it will be a leftover day here.
I am going to send you a picture via text so show you material purchased and pattern idea.

Good Morning,
I posted photos of my quilts from the quilt show in Photos. Yes, I will go back today. The show closes at 4:00 PM and then it is takedown. It goes down much easier than going up.

Dinner will be late and I need to pull something from freezer. I am thinking Chicken Pot Pies.

Maryz - It is a lot of work to piece the backs. Antonio and Autumn must be very excited. Has she had a baby shower?

It is time for me to get moving.
Carol

Mary, baby news is so exciting. I finished 9 lotto blocks, 22 Ohio star blocks, 8 other blocks for a a quilt, and started on a small Bee wall hanging. Hoping to get it done today. It's been a busy few days. I think I finally got my sewjo back.

Carol, Betsy said the show was really nice. I'm not going to make it this year. Take down is way easier.

I think dinner will be take out. Probably Italian.

Have a lovely day.
