Join me for Virtual Quilt Weekend--Christmas Style

Guess what? No electricity this morning. Had tea and then breakfast with DH out on the deck, mowed part of the front acreage. I am in for a pit stop and then back to mowing the back 40... THEN... I get to sew! Whew, can't wait. Oh yeah, the power company was johnny on the spot and restored our electrical power. Sure made me wish I had at least one of my 3 treadles working.

Well just finished my "Easy Street" top had to remove border and put a new one on as ran short of the other fabric. Had 3" left of this one close one but made it. Sorry the picture is not the best but one top done for today at least

Christine, your quilt is gorgeous. I'm in the middle of assembling the blocks for the Irish Chain quilt. Stopped to go out and move some things back onto the deck after having it cleaned and sealed. One of the flower pots had a major ant hill under it with the larvae and ants. They were frantically running around trying to get the eggs to safety. Really gave me the heebie jeebies!

I would have loved to join you but the new washer came this morning, the tree guy came this morning for an estimate (still looking to get tree down due to Sandy. This is our third try)then dh, ds's and I went to mow two lawns and have lunch. I didn't do much but it was nice family time. Tomorrow is Father's Day barbque at sister's house.

Got a good start on the muslin bunnies..Had to stop with them for the day, since 4 of the grandchildren that came by will be Christmas recipients- foolish me told the parents to leave them for a while and get a date night...Don't want to ruin the surprise----Looks like I get to do some hand quilting for the rest of the night, and back to the bunnies tomorrow.
