All in all, it's probably breaking even when you consider the time involved, but it makes him feel good. So that's priceless.

Exactly :thumbup:

It sure is. Perfect to stay inside and make a quilt.

Beautiful quilts!!!! Where do you live in CO? My friend lives near Aspen -- wonder if it's cold and rainy there, too? ;)

It is raining, raining, rainning all the way across South Dakota. And I sat in the rain all weekend watching soccer at our DGS tournament on the other side of the state.

Where are you from in Colorado? Ditto for rain and cold. Stayed in and done quilting also. I am new to the site. I am from the Denver area

Good job on getting some stuff done.

Hot, humid, sticky here, with a broken air conditioner. Got a call out to the repair guy. I keep telling myself it is good for me. I still don't like it!

I'm located south of Colorado Springs. I think all of Colorado was wet and chilly this weekend. Good for quilting, bad for motorcycle riding.

I spent the weekend indoors sewing too.... but the weather was sunny and warm here. Just goes to show that no matter what the weather does, someone somewhere will use it as an excuse to sew (-:
