    Smart to take to laundry mat.

    Yep, that binding can be so fun. If I get blessed this weekend with time, I will finish up six more quilts except binding which will be next week and some customer quilts finished.

    Glad to know you are working on those UFOs. I love seeing all of our progress.

    Oh my, is everyone busy like I am with canning and yard work for winter? No one has posted on here for a week!.
    My goal this weekend is to:
    1: Quilt the seven quilts I have sitting there waiting to be done.
    2: Put binding on all of those quilts that have been waiting.
    3: Do my bible study I started on the book of David.
    4: I do have to can the pears and the tomatoes that are ready, but holding off on those beets and carrots
    5: Put on the last border of a log cabin quilt that needs done. yep, 3" nine patch blocks. Torturnuring myself for sure, but needs to be done.
    All this with a cold and exhausted. This will be my relaxing time and no one better get in my way or they will find themselves covered in chocolate so i will talk to them. (LOL)

    you all with me!!!!!!

    Quiltermomma you are an amazing bundle of energy so you might not have any over ripe (shall I say rotten) pears and tomatoes like I do. But, if you do have some you might want to place them in a bucket nearby in case anyone not wearing or bearing chocolate should dare approach. Do you dehydrate any of your produce? That's one of the ways I preserve the abundance quickly. Good luck with you daunting weekend list.

    I thought you might want to be the one covered in chocolate. Well I better hear you loud and clear because I am going to need it for sure. Maybe can send dh fishing with neighbor so I do have a quiet house. LOL For some reason he makes me feel guilty I am quilting and should be working although that is what I ahve been doing for the last two weekends non stop and during the week.

    I have been busy catching up on FW Pony Club blocks and Quilts for Rosie blocks...both "blocks of the week" on the QB. The Rosie blocks I am all caught up on (4-10" blocks, pp'd). Long way to go on the PC ones...I did get a block finished this week and cut fabrics for at least 10 more...only have 3 or 4 left and then will be sewing again! YAY!

    Well, thank you very much sewnso.

    MY DH DID GO FISHING YESTERDAY! I was able to accomplish a good chunck of what I wanted. Pears got canned, made zucchini quiche with the last zucchini and cleaned up my mess. I did not do any tomatoes this weekend, but guess what I get to do tonight because the frost is coming.

    I finished quilting seven of mine and one customer quilt. I have to complete binding on three of them, but here are some shots of them:
