One Finished & Another Started

I finished this quilt yesterday.  It is now pressed, photographed, and

folded neatly inside a plastic zip lock bag.  Did I mention I enjoy

working with batik fabrics?   The colors and patterns are amazing

and I may have enough fabric left to squeeze out another quilt.

 I made this quilt for the lady who spent an hour with me

at Solid Tops which is our local granite store.  We have used

them in the past and on Friday afternoon the guys will be coming

out to do a template for the replacement of the drab Corian in the new

home.  That way we can decide which 'grade' or 'level' of

granite we can afford to put in.  Also yesterday after I dropped

the westies off at the groomers {photo's later} I stopped at

the Re-Store which is run by Habitat for Humanity.  I checked

in with the coordinator and they will accept all the carpet from

the new house as well as the [drab] Corian counter tops and they will 

gladly come and pick everything up.  It's a win-win all around ... 

helping others within our community.

Table Runner

I found this pattern in a quilting magazine and decided

to give it a try.  The strips are 12-1/2" x 2-1/2" and 

there are 25 of them.  Simple, cute, and easy to make.

This will be added to my donation stash for westie rescue.

Since I purchased yards and yards of this fabric I also 

cut out a pair of standard pillowcases out of the white.

Today

Today is a good day for sewing, grocery shopping, and cleaning.

Sister Debby will be driving to the Eastern Shore on Friday morning.

We plan to have lunch at our favorite pizza joint then onto

Hobby Lobby [in Salisbury] and on the way back home we'll

stop at the Quilt Vine in Trappe.  We may even go to Ava's for dinner.
Deb and I have no problem with having pizza for lunch and pizza for dinner.
We must have been Italian in another life!
