here in maryland we are inching slowly toward actual cool with 30 and 40-degree mornings that require more than a sweater. back in my routine of regular exercise...and my sewing mojo has ramped up as well! last night joined in with zoom quilty peeps for a bit of socializing and reconnecting...
all busy quilters and sewists with lots of eye candy! my task for the evening was to move forward on a UFO, "wildest dreams" and now working on block 10 with only 6 to go. the patchwork parts are done, just adding the pink triangles and squares.
from the october 2009 issue of American Patchwork & Quilting, maker is unknown, a beautiful vintage quilt. This is going to be a flimsy before 2023 arrives...i hope!
a wonderful surprise arrived in my mail this week. on a whim entered a giveaway on a blog i follow, "from my carolina home," for some aurifil thread. my own supply was dwindling and it was on my list to replenish....
not anymore! 9 lovely spools--3 spools each in 3 collections of my choice--and they are most welcome. when "sunny" the vintage singer arrives can't wait to introduce her to this thread. will only have to add a couple of spools of white at some point and probably a few spools of 28 wt for hand quilting. happy additions all!
and it had to happen....summer veggie choices slowly leaving....the other day i enjoyed my last farm stand cuke...a staple of my diet all summer. it's a quick fix veggie and low cal filler upper....so long until may....
it's another beautiful autumn day and dear daughter and i are off on a day trip....that's all for now!
