Well, it would very nice to join you fine folks. I have never participated in a quilt along before but I still have the flu so can't go to dinner and today should be my quilting day.
I have a pretty piece of fabric with antique sewing notions on it that I am turning into a machine pad with apron. I spent a lot of yesterday measuring, checking, remeasuring, refiguring. I am going to check a few things again but believe I am almost ready to do this. Oh, the problem is that the piece of fabric is actually not really big enough. It will be so nice to get this done it has been on the list for some time.
