Saturday I went to a rally(obedience type) trial with my dog. She blew all 3 classes. She just can't wait to start. Sunday I put fabric started products and scaps away. I am having a total knee replacement Thursday, and am trying to get things organized so I can sew without much moving around. I will learn how to use my left foot on the pedal! Diane C

I cleaned my waterlogged basement. On February 28 TH we had flooding all over town and our house to.The water backed up through the drain and we had 6 inches of water in here.We had to pump it out with 2 pumps. Tore all the wet carpet out of my finished basement and threw 4 boxes filled with soaked patterns away. Some of my stash got wet but I saved it by washing it. I am getting to old for all this furniture and plastic tubs moving.
Thank God we have good oak furniture which my hubby build and they only had to be washed and dried.

Helped a friend clean and sort her storage area on Saturday. Got motivated to do the same at home. Sunday we planted 4 trees before Service at 4:00. Monday, I started my first quilt project on my 1919 Singer treadle sewing machine. It sews wonderfully and was so much fun!

My husband took me to Cannon Beach for 3 days. It was so relaxing. One day of bad weather, thats OK I got to read. We visited all the quilt shops in the area. One day of absolutely spectacular weather. We had a great time.

GGD stayed over Fri/Sat so we played games, and then when she and DH went to see Rango on Sat, I stayed home and finished reading Jodi Picoult's book House Rules, which was wonderful. Just love her books.
Sunday DH & I went to visit 2 antique shops before rain turned to snow and we had to head home. Almost bought antique quilt... couldn't make up my mind between 4, so decided to think about it. All were hand pieced/quilted. Two were 1930s, other two were 1880s...not thrilled about colors in 3 of them but loved the patterns. Loved colors of 1 but not liking the pattern and.... Only 1 was full size, the rest were twin. As you can see I still have not made up my mind.
P.S. A young friend & former co-worker (my kids age) does the voice of Spoons in Rango. Very proud of him!

I also had an unexpected opportunity to go the Puyallup, Wash sewing expo (I live in PA) We had 2 full days there-loved every minute. I saw & chitchatted with Eleanor Burns-she is originally from my area of PA, Nancy Zeiman & Libby Lehman.
My wallet suffered but it was a once in a lifetime opportunity, loved it.
