Hope you are doing well..is it hot yet?
Hit 100 yesterday and supposed to today too. Taking kids to freebie water sprayground to cool off. I do a ton of quilting work in the summer, more than in the winter time so I hate to lose valuable stitching time by playing outside....but the kids need to cool off and I could have some sun.
So sad all the flooding. Take care and yes, do get some sun sessions in between quilting.
I'm working on mostly smaller Xmas present projects at the moment. No quilts planned except a baby quilt in the fall. Want to actually make the Xmas presents this year. Have 2 of 9 done so far.

Well, I quilted it before I left for my brother's wedding, bound it this morning and wallah...frustration seems like a distant memory now...all I feel is a sense of satisfaction and some pride for sticking to the project and finishing it...and it is all in orange...my happy color! It is in the wash now...can't wait to dry it and hang it! Yippee!!
Thanks all for looking!
