Two for Two

the two solids tops made in june have a home!  both went to the friday group to finish and donate to the vets' hospice...the bright solids top has gone home with someone to add borders but i can show you the finished top of the plaid triangles...


it has now gone home with the quilter for finishing...added the simple squares border of the sewing table pile that hadn't got put away yet...good thing...the peeps seemed to like it, proclaiming it ideal for our project.  

aside from working on 'wildest dreams' this week, spent two days with a friend making stockings for her church's holiday fair.  she originally planned to make 5, but might as well make 20 i said...she gasped a bit but teamwork got it done....


she was kind enough to pick me up and serve me lunch both days, and we both declared a job well done.  it delights me to share my talents with others for worthy causes; thanks be to God for his provision of my abilities!  

other than this bit of sewing progress, mostly stayed inside out of oppressive heat, did some house chores and cooking.  our building had 2 deaths last week who actually lived across the hall from each other, so 2 long-waiting individuals will be joining us soon.  

we have a newish tenant with a connection to free produce, and the other day he arrived with about 12 boxes of various items, most welcome.  unfortunately, a certain few took advantage but thankfully the manager saw and spoke to them.  they seem to have little regard for others in the building, which rankles many and rightly so. 

anyway another cloudy day, sporadic rain and thunder showers i guess but still hot...so what else but keep cool and sew on!
