SUNDAY - Hoppy Bunny Day!!! My MIL was here for dinner. It's my first holiday hosting in quite some time (and everything turned out really well.) For all my RSC Quilter friends, I didn't forget YOU and dressed with hints of the Color of the Month:
MONDAY - With another B9P loaded on the frame, I got to work one getting it quilted. Please notice, even though the maker isn't involved in the Rainbow Scrap Challenge, there is AQUA in the center of her quilt:
TUESDAY - Outdoor adventures with a little friend, followed by some time at the library and more time out in the yard:
WEDNESDAY - My bestie was out of town, so I met with a quilting friend to discuss quilting her next quilt. Here is a sneak peek with the orange for the back and purple on the front:
I **almost** got the quilt on the frame DONE!! Almost, but not quite. That's OK... Tomorrow is another day. (And half way is probably not as close to done as I had hoped. LOL)
THURSDAY - I went to my Weekly Quilt Group this morning. I came home with these beauties for the Hearts for Christchurch project run by Angels in Gumboots:
About that sideways photo?? Just try to ignore that. I have NO IDEA what went wrong there! |
Candy is smiling because I also brought home that bag of scraps sitting on the arm of her chair:
Unfortunately...
I had to stop for a thunderstorm to pass through, but was able to gather and sort fabrics for another project while waiting it out. And LOOK!! Shades of AQUA were involved in the selection:
I even risked a bit of sewing:
More about that in the NEW edition of Design Floor Friday.
SATURDAY - It's my favorite day of the week! LINK PARTY day over at Angela's So Scrappy blog. This recent finish is currently hanging in my kitchen to brighten the time spent there:
Oops!
It's off center, possibly off-kilter, and suffering from the shadows of evening light
(which is when I took the photo last night.)
At least, AQUA features prominently in the design.
Until next time...
Get SCRAPPY!!!
Meanwhile, DH and I are headed out to the Rainbow of Heroes Walk for the Duke PBMT Family Support program:
It sounds like another fun and busy week for you! I always love your nails, LOL!
ReplyDeleteYour nails match your Easter dress perfectly! Glad you had a good time hosting for dinner that day - I haven't done that in awhile either, and not sure I could pull it off anymore... :)
ReplyDeleteYou, my friend, have GREAT taste! (I have the same skirt but mine is lime and black.) You did a whole lot more than I. Enjoy the weekend. ;^)
ReplyDeleteFun Fun week!!! That BNP - On I bet that is just gorgeous with the glimpse that you showed!! Yay for scraps - and have fun today!!
ReplyDeleteLovely nails, and they fit perfect to your beautiful dress.So much fun! Lovely kitchen wall hanging too. Have another fun week! :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing all your inspirational scrappy goodness with us!
ReplyDeleteFirst, I loooove your dress! Such a pretty print! And of course your nails are pretty too ;) Beautiful quilting projects, and your On Ringo Lake is lovely!
ReplyDeleteSounds like you had a wonderful (and very FULL) week. I'd be smiling too if I got all those scraps!
ReplyDeleteIf you're a platelet and/or blood donor, THANK YOU!! I can't do it myself so I'm always grateful to those who can. A lifesaving gift! If you have a link to support your walk with $$, feel free to send it to me :)
ReplyDeleteAnother fun quilty week for you whether the kids got fed or not! I had to just stop and drool a bit over that first photo. The nails are awesome (goes without saying—your quilter nails are probably legendary), but the fabric of whatever it was you were wearing. Gorgeous! I want to quilt with that!
