Oh goodness! I remember my grandma using one of those pop bottle sprinkler things too. She would sprinkle everything and roll it up, put it into a plastic bag and go back after doing some other chores and everything was damp and ready to press, no need for a steam iron...don't remember if she even had one. Wow! What a blast from the past.
I have managed to wash and iron all the fabric for my BIL's quilt and have gotten the borders cut. I designed this on EQ6 and it even figured the yardage and the cutting directions. What an awesome program...now just got to wait for my copy of EQ7 to come...
Don't stuff yourself to full of all that great picnic food everyone! DH made us some luscious ham in the crock pot, not picnic for us today, had lunch with DS and oldest DD yesterday when they were down from NY.
Enjoy your evening!
