MONDAY - Memorial Day Holiday! Were YOU off work??? All around town, there are signs of summer. Including these lovely ORANGE day lilies:
TUESDAY - Evening Quilt Bee met tonight. I
WEDNESDAY - I worked on finishing the I-cord bind off for my Hoodie Shawl Cardigan. Only the left front remains!
THURSDAY - I managed to swing by my Weekly Quilt Group for a little while this morning. Boy, am I glad I did!! Look what my friend Dee Dee brought for me:
You are right... It's not ORANGE!! I will forgive her. :P
Seriously? Sewing machines! What's NOT to love?
Thank you for thinking of me, Dee Dee!!!
FRIDAY - A little knitting this morning...
... Led to a bit more knitting this afternoon...
... And that led to some really good news. I finished my Hoodie Shawl Cardigan!!! Here's the picture proof:
Our town has a monthly event called Last Friday (which was scheduled for tonight.) DH volunteered to help with the Robotics Team booth, but the weather had other ideas.

ReplyDeleteIt rained a lot here on Memorial Day. We usually go to the ceremony but were moving my mom to transitional care, so missed it. We heard they held the ceremony in pouring rain. My dad's name was read for the first time. Love your hoodie, Joy!!! Great job! And that sewing machine fabric is awesome!
