quiet Easter sunday here....gas prices kept me from dinner at DD and DSIL's...settled for some homemade spaghetti sauce here...ham is off my menu...our governor had instituted a gas tax holiday that expired saturday so it's like an invisible fence to remain local. anyway, made good use of a free day (another one!) to get the butterflies to a flimsy....
i've called it "psychedelic garden" and plan to quilt vines and leaves in the sashing...no border just the white binding to finish it off...and with that flimsy done, selected another UFO that needed the same...
a bird house project that got stalled because of lettering, now done and can proceed with completion. it'll have some birds appliqued on flying in to inspect! the letters are smaller than they appear in this photo....it's a rainy, chilly, icky day so thinking of setting up basting table. can work on "midnight at the oasis", a project that needs to be a flimsy plus baste a few small pieces. scrappy trees is nearly quilted so anticipate finish by week's end. *** sewing blocks for secret project continues and monthly mini half assembled. *** but it's monday and that's been laundry day as far back as i can remember, so that's on and some exercise and the rest of the day is mine to sew...how good is that!
It's always good to have an inside "sew day", but it is criminal, that these inflated gas prices are keeping our seniors from being able to get out and about! It is also criminal to blame an act of war, when we all know that it is corporate greed that sends fuel prices soaring! Off my soap box now - have a great day!
