Unfortunately clean house.

I get my hair cut today at 1. Need to plan dinner and get whatever meat I'm cooking out of the freezer. Beyond that I seem to be putting off ironing and piecing fabric for a top I finished a couple of weeks ago. Also I made a mini twister from the scraps that needs to be sandwiched, quilted and bound. I'm really terrible at completing projects.

I am now having a cup of coffee with Quilter's Message Board...fun, fun
Later on I need to clean up before my cleaning ladies come...stupid.
Most of all I plan to use my day doing what the Lord has asked me...check after my brothers and sisters in God. Have wonderful day.

Homework (Phlebotomy and Law & Ethics for Medical Careers), school for a meeting about my clinicals, come home, dishes, dinner, sew!

I will be quilting. Three friends are coming over again today and we are hand quilting a quilt to raffle off for my sons fifth grade class to help pay for a trip to Washington DC and New York City. That's a big deal for Kentucky kids.

This is already the next day, but I will work at the school until 3:15. Then I plan on cleaning the living room and kitchen when I get home. After that I hope to start on the 16 table runners. They are 120" long and I will be putting the wave stitch on the edge with my serger. A friend hired me to do these for the tables for her daughters wedding reception.

I got my hubby off to work this morning and the rest of the day I am going to be busy cutting fabric and sewing with my new sewing machine.

Just returned from a weekend at my cousin's home. Her mother was a quilter and was 106 when she passed away last year. She saved everything (zippers, lace from old lingerie, etc.) and I got to go through all her scraps and quilting books. Now I have to sift through what I took and start some baggies to make what I am going to call "Nonnie quilts." Oh, what fun!!!!!!!!!!! Some of the scraps are from dresses my grandmother wore when she was a young woman and from quilts she made. I'm so excited. Will do part of this today in between errands.

I'm going to "try" to get back to work in my fabric closet. I have 5 visiting "grand-dogs" for two week, so it will probably be very cozy in there since four of them like to hover along with my own little pup. We'll see how it goes.

Took my dog for her walk, got a cup of coffee and am sitting here reading the board. Then I need to work on a Halloween panel to finish embellishing so I can get it hung for the holiday. Have three table runners waiting to be quilted for Christmas gifts, 3 Christmas wall hangings to embellish and quilt, bind, etc. Also need to put another coat of oil stain on my deck before it gets any colder or wetter. Have lots to do...but I'm retired so it won't all get done today..tee hee
