    Started quilting! Working on my purple cat quilt. I had to run the batting through the dryer so that it would lay flat and it got really fluffy. Here's the quilt top before quilting

    Making slow progress on machine quilting the baby quilt. Seems like there is always someone interrupting but I will keep plodding along.

    This is not as easy as it looks to keep every thing in order and having cut the bits to the right size. What do you think?

    I have yet to make it into my sewing studio, but when I do I have a mountain of pressing to get done, and a quilt to put on my frame, and if those get boring I can cut sashings and corner stones, or sew HSTs until I'm sick of them. So many options! :-) Or I could work on my pinwheels crib quilt. Though I think I need a little flannel for that...I haven't decided.

    Got up early this a.m. to make and bake two loaves of Irish soda bread. A little slice of heaven still warm with butter on. While the loaves were baking, I was hand quilting a table runner. Later I went up to the sewing room and decided on final block placement for a lap quilt. Will start sewing rows together this afternoon. Also need to simmering the corned beef in an hour or so. More hand quilting and probably considerable burping from my rich meal will be going on tonight.
