Bonaroo is Tennessee's version of Woodstock. There is variety of artist from Hip Hop, Country, Blues and even Folk music. I have never been, don't have a desire to go either. It is outside, no shelters set up other than what you bring like a tent, and its crowded. Lasts all week long.

Received my beautiful table runner from my partner Marilyn today. It is gorgeous and is on my table right now thank you. I'm halfway through with yours been busy these last few weeks and will get back to it on Monday. Will try to have it out to you by next weekend. Will take picture later and post.

Bonaroo, sounds fabulous ........ if I was younger. Just like Sturgis use to be, aaaah those memories, wild and free and fancy free. Now, would have one H of a time walking 2 blocks!! Have to leave it all for the younger generation.

I guess it is "if you like that sort of thing" as my dear Granddaddy would have said. :) This week Nashville hosted CMA Fest which used to be called Fan Fair. I have never been to it either, but the city and surrounding counties have been a buzz. So, two weeks in a row just seems too much for the fun!

I received my beautiful picnic runner from Marybeth. Oh, it's just perfect. I'll take pictures as soon as I can get to a picnic table. It's a bit soggy here right now.

oh Marybeth will be thrilled. She is heading to Washington for a week so not sure when she gets back on here but she was anxious for you to say you got it. Phew!

PLEASE TAKE PICTURES OF YOUR RUNNERS RECEIVED if you cant please have your partner post one. Its a beautiful way to finsh the swap and encourages others to join the next one!

I woke up this morning 4:50 a.m. and looked at the temp... 69 degrees. NOT a good sign. should hit 100 today and that isnt good. Ran the air yesterday and since its a window air conditioner it was cool til 4 then it seemed it just kept creeping up. it was 80 at 8 p.m. UGH this is so not good for the forest, I see fires galore if this continues. It had better not .. I was listening to the radio yesterday and they said cooling trend starts coming in, Sunday will be much cooler.. 95 hello where is that MUCH cooler than 100. I think honestly they feel the same.

I am so glad you liked it....I was worried about getting the right colors. All the fabrics were pre-washed and the batting is polyester so I hope it stays flat. Please don't feel rushed, I know I have a great runner coming....sometimes we just run into a lot of life issues and our fun time is limited. I won't call the swap police...lol.

Started FMQ my runner today. This is my first real fmq'd project. I really like how it started, and then.....well,l spent an hour tearing out the next part. It looked great in my mind! Oh well, it's just time :) and I have learned a valuable lesson. Oh Dabbler I hope you like it! :thumbup:

FYI: I AM THE SWAP POLICE :) I know all so no secrets here honeybuns! If your going to be late and your partner is cool with that all is good. If someone is disgruntled however I need to hear about it in PM ok? no venting here just to me (LUCKY ME!)

another scorcher today but like that weather guy said MUCH cooler heck only 95 today not 100. phew. that will feel way cooler .. in theory I guess because truth be told it will suck as much as 100 in my little minds eye. I dont like heat much ... I am going to sew today take a break from reality here and sew.. besides lol its right next to the air conditioner so its a double fun thing :) Ya' all have a grand snickity kind of day and I will do my best too. I am thinking time is flying quickly and soon I will say goodbye to CA maybe for the last time.. wow.. need to find out if Jaba wants that special wine or not.. oh Jaba... vino for two?
