This week I plan to---
- Quilt a top
- Put borders on the pink/white quilt
- Finishing sewing together the courthouse steps.
- Piece a backing for the courthouse steps
And the box from my sister and brother in law? It was filled with all sorts of fabric. Some cut into squares and bundled up. A cardboard template. Lots of homespuns and solids. I think Paul's mother was planning a 9 patch quilt, as there is a bundle of 9 patches already sewn together. I will wash it all up, and see what I can make out of it.
And when I quilt, I often wear some "more supportive" shoes. Okay, maybe more padded! I wear some hard foam sandals with my wool socks.
I will say I wear my wool socks almost year round!

I've been getting a kick out of seeing your footwear. What's the shiny, blue furry stuff in the previous post?
you'll have fun with that box of fabric! Love the RED shoes, I wear Birks for standing at the quilt frame ... saves my feet!
That's quite the box of fabric. I never used to like homespuns, but they're growing on me as I get older. Have fun with it all!
Wow, what a find! Can't wait to see what you do with it!
I can't do without my lace-ups. Too clumsy!
if you didn't live in the frozen tundra of outer Siberia you wouldn't need wool socks year round!! ;-)
don't you worry about losing those lovley squares and blocks to fraying if you wash them as is? I'd quilt em first then wash!
looks like you inherited some fun in a box....
oh, and I'm either just in socks or in my slippers....but I have to take one slipper off to sew otherwise i can't feel the footpedal and things go awry.
