ScrapHappy Saturday - RSC25 - Week 48

Welcome to Week 48 of the 2025 Rainbow Scrap Challenge!!  With a month of  retirement under my belt, I will spare you the weekly update.  Will there be scrappy sewing this week?  I certainly hope so!

Read on to find out...

SUNDAY - During my Weekly Morning Art Zoom, I cut shapes from the gel printed papers I made yesterday and created this collage:

I had another chat with Sue this afternoon.  She called to check on me because my guys aren't at home this week.  Thanks, Sue!

MONDAY - Another FREE watercolor class with Tammy Kaye, but this morning it was on Patreon instead of Zoom.  This is my version of the floral bouquet we worked on today:

Later, I took in a watercolor class with Emma Weekes.  The splodges in the grass was part of our warm-up, but I opted to paint right over it instead of  wasting paper:

TUESDAY -  During Open Studio with Barb this afternoon, I worked on adding details to my 2-minute warm-up landscape painting from yesterday's class with Tammy Kaye:

Later...

Here I am waiting for my Weekly Zoom Call with LeeAnna @ Not Afraid of Color:

We got our wires crossed on the timing of today's meeting.

WEDNESDAY - Doctor Day

Before I headed out, I sorted through these scraps and made a start on my November 2025 TABLE SCRAPS Challenge entry.  I hope you will check the link in Friday's entry to see what became of them:

Nothing like the LAST minute, right!!

At least I was on time for my pulmonology follow-up appointment!  Today I met with a different fellow and the UNC lead physician focusing on my lung condition came in to consult with me.  She said that I picked the right day to come in.  I was told to continue my nebulizer treatments and was referred to attend an upcoming virtual Patient Education Program to learn more about what ails me.  (My words, not hers.)

Next, a quick lunch and a stop at the car dealership to see about a replacement windshield since a dump truck's tires through a rock at my car and put a chip in it.  The chip was accompanied by a crack that has been steadily growing since the unfortunate incident.  :o((

Afterwards, I had promised Knittingsuek a visit.  And look!  She surprised me with a gift:

THURSDAY - Happy Thanksgiving!!!

I attended my friend Beth's holiday celebration.  It was lovely buffet at her community's fine dining restaurant with a few of her neighbors who generously welcomed me:  

DH's flight returns at 10 PM, but DS1 agreed to pick him up at the airport so I will go get him tomorrow.  I spent the evening working in the studio.

FRIDAY - TABLE SCRAPS Challenge Link Party

No Knit Group today.  At least, not for me!  I had a few things to do...

First - Stop at the local Big Box Store to check for white quilt batting.

Second - Go to Cary Quilting Company to meet up with Monica from the UFO Club:

And...

Third - Head to DS1's for a visit to bring DH home from his cross-county road trip.  I'm amazed by how fast a week passed!  He is so glad to be home and I was happy to see him and enjoyed the visit with our son and his girlfriend.  Here he is with her ginormous cat:

Obviously, I ended up missing Get Messy's Open Studio with Deandra AND unfortunately, my Weekly Evening Art Zoom, too.  I could have shown up really late, but opted to continue the chat with DH that began during our dinner out.  He was catching me up about trip details, DS2's apartment, and the interesting news about his new work environment.

SATURDAY - It's LINK PARTY day for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge!  I hope you will join me in visiting Angela @ So Scrappy to see what the RSC Quilters have been up to this week.  Here's hoping everyone is having an enjoyable holiday weekend.

Until next time...

Get SCRAPPY!!
