A busy week without much sewing. Still binding away! Thursday was busy--had a program outside the visitor center. So an early morning. Its July, but it was overcast, cold and windy. (we were outside). I had brought a jacket, and Michaela used the deer hide from the program to keep warm.
She said it was very warm. By afternoon we were back at the Visitor Center. Late afternoon a friendly face strolled up the sidewalk--Lorri2Rs! She had been to Crazy Days where she lives and brought two large sacks of mens shirts to debone for quilts.
The weather was beautiful, we sat outside at the picnic tables to cut them apart. There must have been at least 20 shirts! All the threads could be shook on the ground. A few were Ken's size and we saved them for him to wear. It was wonderful to see 2Rs and we enjoyed supper out. Thank you 2Rs!!
There has been more rain since last post, everything is very green. My tomato plants have produced five tomatoes so far. The plants are loaded and I'm hoping for a bumper crop.
Have you made a quilt from shirts before?
