Terriamn - Bless you and your dh in this new "adventure"!!!! I bet I would have crossed my eyes many, many, many times from April until now. With that said . . . if you want to run away . . . think Alabama door's open!

Terriamn lots of work to complete, glad for you that it has begun. Big quilt for sure...finally finished the quilting today, think my back and shoulder's are aging very fast!! Two days and 9 long arm bobbins later, that's a lot of thread... Went ahead and sewed on the binding and am ready to hand sew it on. Will take me a week I'm sure.

I know the feeling with delays in home improvements. We had a new roof put on and it took almost 6 weeks, one due to the workers only working on the weekend. They stated it was a small roof and the bigger jobs were for the weekdays. The workers would work til 1 in the afternoon. Would drive my husband crazy and I was the person he complained too. I was ready to run away too. I did not get a whole lot of planned sewing done during that time, which drove me crazy.

Terriamn & fellow members, going to MSQ co, is worth the drive. I live 1 1/2 hours away. I go with a friend and we make a 1/2 day of it every 4-6 months. And yes the fabric is overwhelming. The nice part is they have made small stores with each store having groups of fabric. Like batiks in one store, holiday fabric in another, etc. They have at least 6 stores in a 1-2 block area. It is very easy to walk from one store to the other.
