    I am getting ready for my one mile walk, and then I am going to mow our next door neighbor's lawn and then I am going to sew a "Corn and Beans" block together and then I am going to finish up a Barn Quilt that I have made for my sister. Oh, I have laundry to do and ironing to do and put the flag out!!!!!! Will do some barbequing for us tonight. So that is about it for the day. Oh, I may do another Leslie Sansone walking exercise and another walk with the dog during the day sometime. That's about it!!!! Have a great day and God Bless all our laborers (of which my husband was one - for 34 years)!!!! Edie

    So, what are you working on??
    I am trying to finish up some Quilts for Kids. I am a couple weeks over the deadline, so want to get mine to be added to the kit they sent me. I quilted 3 quilts on the long arm yesterday. Today I am going to make a run to Joanns to see if I can find a complimentary fabric for the border on the one I am making now. Just going to hang around and try to finish up loose ends while we are having a rainy day.

    Just finished working 5 days supervising/running the quilt show at the local county fair. If I do anything today, it will be in my recliner with my feet up.

    Patchsamkim, that is a wonderful kindness. Yet another example of how loving quilters are.

    I am working on two black and white doll quilts for this month's swap. Always so much fun.

    I had planned to go cubbing today, but the weather nixed that....So, I think I'll work on FMQ the quilts I have prepared as gifts for my niece and nephew and should have done all ready. Summer is my outdoor time so I don't get much sewing done. I have too many projects - not enough time. Sound familiar?

    Have my plates ready for the blocks on my very first Dresden Plate quilt. Having a little difficulty measuring exactly how W and L I want the quilt. The bed is King size, and the 25 inch blocks look enormous to me. Wish me luck while we celebrate Labor Day!
