Monday Goals

Goal setting time! The cutoff date for customer quilts is December 15th, so they have to be high on the list.

  1. Quilt the tan 9 patches
  2. Work on the customer quilts
  3. Bind the red Heartstrings and the Pink baby quilt

I know that will keep me busy this week. My friend Sally would like to have a "girls day out", Ken is finishing up the last of harvest and would be very happy if "Annie and I" did some fall tillage for him. We really don't do "presents" on either side of the family, so no real shopping involved. The rest of the "kids" are all to the age that money is the best fit! And I know Mason doesn't need any more toys!

When Laura Beth was little, on holidays and her birthday she often received savings bonds as gifts from the grandparents and relatives. By the time she was out of college and married, they had added up. I think that is a good thing, and hope to do the same with Mason.

And I forgot to add one thing on my stash report yesterday, next week I will have to remember to add a yard of fabric I bought to bind the 9 patches. I had three crooked pieces left when I made the border and the backing--not enough to make binding.



So I bought this for binding


Right now the weather is nice, I am going to hang the last of the outside lights, and then I'm going to sew! Everyone have a great week!

Lori,

Thank you for your concern and caring about my poor flood-damaged town.

If only the dollar/pound exchange wasn't so bad you could come over here and see for yourself how beautiful the Lake District is.
