    Well, when my husband went to Sturgis, they rode thru some states without helmets and off blew his dude rag twice. I was not crazy about him riding without a helmet anyway, but then he lost two dude rags...uh! I told him that he can't afford to loose brain cells on the pavement.

    Well, here are the pictures I promised once I finished.

    I had a really productive day today, despite my troubles with my paper piecing project. Finished binding on 2 quilts. Attached binding on 2 others. Made 3 block of the month blocks. Still behind by 3, but I'm closer now. And I made a backing and loaded my next quilt on the long arm. Just have to decide how I want to quilt it.

    I showed some of my blocks earlier. Here is the July block from the Blogger's Block of the Month - finished just in time for the August block to come out this week.

    Rachel, thanks for setting these up--it's such a grat idea! Unlike some, I didn't finish my list, although the only thing left undone is to prepare the appliqué pieces for my monthly block swap. On the flip side, the sea turtles quit is complete, including the binding.

    It was nice to pop in tonight to see what everyone had accomplished.... Unfortunately I didn't get into the sewing room at all, but had a fun day at the track. Thanks everyone for posting pictures.

    I made four placemats from my left over "chicken" fabric and may try quilting one today, to see how it goes. But I also have many household demands that have nothing to do with quiltmaking or sewing so may have to do those first. Duty calls...and occasionally has to be answered!

    Hey Rachel, do you have a date in mind for next month's virtual quilting? I had a great time following everyone's progress, and got a ton done thanks to the incentive of the virtual party.

    Good morning all! After enjoying a cup of coffee on the patio with my DH in this beautiful weather, I will work on finishing a quilt with a Sept. 13th deadline. Almost ready to start the binding process. Pleased with work over the weekend and I can do this, I can do this ...... Happy quilting!
