    I quilt year round. In the winter months maybe a little more, but I do so enjoy hand work in the summer months sitting in my flower garden or on the porch.

    I like to spend time outdoors in the summer, of course, if the weather is bad, that's a different story. Sometimes I work on quilt tops in the summer and then quilt them in the winter.

    Getting ready for daughter's wedding here and I have not sewn in weeks, maybe a couple of months. The heat is so bad here that by early evening we are all exhausted and that time is when I would have spent on my machine, but just too wilty.
