GO GIRLS GO You're doing a WONDERFUL JOB!
I sewed for at least 4 hours last night while listening to and watching occasionally the BLACKHAWK's game! GO HAWKS!
Finished sewing 2 more columns for my braid quilt.
TWO MORE COLUMNS AND ALL THE COLUMNS ARE ***DONE***
Can anyone say WOOHOO with me! WOOOOOHOOOOOO!!!!!
Lots more work around the house lined up to get done today and 2 errands to run.
I *want* to finish those last 2 columns TONIGHT before I collapse in bed totally exhausted.

I started piecing blocks for potholders for gifts for Christmas. Every family is getting a set of potholders, small tablerunner and maybe a couple matching dish towels. I started on them yesterday, also spend half a day on my son's Housewarming gift, a queen size quilt, almost done. I will post pix when I am done. In the quilting stage now.

I am sewing the rest of my SIggie Blocks to get mailed by Monday. Then I am finishing the repair on two quilts I am being paid to mend. Then I have one handquilt to finish for another lady who has waited patiently. Then if I have time I am starting to handquilt my Bargello I did in Batiks. I love long weekends. I don't work but I still love the holiday weekends. Happy quilting all.

WhooooooHoooooo quilting here. Great job. I am still working on my fall quilt, but the blocks are done and now am starting to piece them together.
Have to go and do a couple of errands, but will be back later this afternoon.

It's been a rough couple of weeks for us. We lost a very dear friend very unexpectedly and it has just been so hard. The funeral was Friday afternoon and we (DH and I) pretty much spent yesterday regrouping. Now I hope to get some sewing done!
I am going to try to get the rest of the sewing done on my OBW. I am really pleased with how it is turning out and the whole time I have been working on it I have been thinking that I can't wait to do another one. Meanwhile I have a Montana Cartwheel (NY Beauty) to keep plugging away at . It is going well, but since I am making it in queen size it is taking me quite a while.
I'll check back in later to see how everyone is doing! Go, go, go! :thumbup:
