Happy St. Joseph's Feast Day! The day the swallows return to Capistrano every year.
Yesterday was filled with lots of different activities - laundry, yard work, prepping cats to applique, campfire, and company. Today will be loading fresh fridge stuff and sewing stuff into trailer, maybe a bit more yard work, and more playing with fabric. I'll cut cat backgrounds and do some more thinking about my Home Sweet Home blocks.
CAROL - Glad you are having a bit of good weather. I've not been to the Reagan Library but want to go one day. Our grandsons have gone and spent hours there. They loved it! Happy Birthday on Wed to your hubby! I've received a couple of those messages of Covid exposure. Nothing happened. But it was good to know. I hope you are OK.
BECCA - Asa and Zeke! Now I remember! Zeke was Bill's Dad's nickname for some reason His real name was Roman - perhaps that's why.
And my dad named his tractor Zeke. Neat that both boys have their papas' names. Our two grandsons also have their natural papa's names, Andrew Roy and Alexander Michael. VELDA - your days are always so full! When you piece your batting, do you use a strip of fusible interfacing/tape or do you zigzag stitch? Just curious. I used to use the fusible tape. When I ran out Cindy suggested using strips of 1-sided fusible interfacing - much cheaper. But now I mostly use a wide/tight zigzag.
LORI - have fun at the beach retreat! What all projects are you taking? I guess I'll be having a 1-person quilting-at-the-beach retreat of my own. We're to be about 48-50 degrees and might not even have rain for two of our four days! Stellar weather for the WA coast in March.
Last night's supper turned a bit 'unplanned'. Weather was nice so, after a few hours of yard work, we had our first campfire of the year in our firepit at 3:30 and invited Tex & Annette for glass of wine around the fire. At 4:30 they responded and said they were on their way. They live about 10 min away. (we'd already come inside by then and had our indoor fire going). They arrived at 5:45. By 7:00 we were starved and asked them if they'd like to join us for impromptu chili burgers and they said they'd already eaten. (But we hadn't!). So after they left at 8:30, we ended up just eating the salad I'd fixed and called it supper. So tonite we'll be having our chili burgers. And inviting NOBODY for ANYTHING!
So how's your supper plan coming along?
