We have great family plans for exploring this lovely island we find ourselves on...
I garden both flowers and vegetables etc. We have a large garden and try to produce as much of our own foods as we can (obviously still end up in the supermarket for lots of things!)
Its a busy time of year for the garden - getting planted up - but once everything is in its pretty easy to keep on top of. (then I'll have more time to sew!)

I did the same thing a little less than a month ago! I was asked to donate soemthing nice for a silent auction for a Lions Club fundraiser. I said I could make a quilt with only about 4.5 weeks to do it. Why oh why didn't I say a quilted table runner?? I made a diappearing 9 patch and I've never made one before. I'm actually a beginner quilter although I've been sewing since I was a kid. I also happen to be working about 10hrs/day so I new I really had to apply myself. I finished the top last week and was going to tie it using strands of embroidery thread since I didn't want to pay to have it quilted. A DF of mine said she'd do it for free. I got it back last night and will put the binding on this weekend. The fundraiser is a week from today. So it'll be finished in plenty of time. It's 55"x65".

We raffled off a quilt for our Harley Owners Group, and raised $900.00. It was totally done by hand. We purchased bandanas with the Harley motif. Each member did one or two at home. When we finished those, we spent the night at a Holiday Inn in a large suite, where we did the sashing and finished. It was great fun for a good cause, and everyone was impressed with our handiwork!!

sounds like you have a plan, and like someone said...you'll end up with more quilters in the group...for next time.
You will learn to keep a lock on the gator (piehole...um mouth, silly)...and somebody else that has taken up 'THE' hobby/way of life, is more like it...will stick their mudstomper in and you can be a cheerleader instead of team captain...hip, hip, hooray!:XD:
