weekend sewing

the weekend list got trimmed a bit due to an outing with a quilty pal....a gigantic local craft show and a nice lunch out...very enjoyable until later that day when word came one of our group had passed away...not a surprise but a somber reality that we are all seniors and anything can happen.  while pondering which project to tackle veered off the list....

remember this?

thinking about sprucing up the kitchen, pulled it out and this happened...

rework required to fit a specific wall place....i actually think i like it better this way anyway...but didn't stop there....remember these?

i had put these and the original top up for sale on a yahoo group with no takers...turns out glad they didn't sell...

sewed up this runner 16x24 for the new-to-me table....not into much decorating but an occasional change isn't too time consuming...so now two more UFOs...LOL...they will get done soon tho.  they are sort of the carrot that will entice me into spring cleaning...

also worked on a window treatment for said kitchen...someone left a linen shower curtain in the giveaway box...brought it home, sewed on a sleeve and will get lined with some gifted flannel...for keeping out the chill from a large double window and the sun in summer...

both evenings found me in the happy place recliner with my quilting project...

this week's plans?  finish doll quilt, start quilting "africa", more "dreams" quilting and more rows on challenge repro triangles...temps fallen back to 60s so not quite summer...and the laundry basket again leering at me...

off to start the day...have a blessed one!
