    First - lovely quilt. It's sooo colorful!

    I too have sewn outside. At our cabin in Wisconsin while the fam is out boating. Just set the machine up in the shade, feel the breeze and go to town! If it's too windy it's kind of a drag though but that isn't too often.

    Great minds think alike! I'm planning to put mine out on the porch. The quilt is a beauty, by the way.

    Oh, that sounds so nice! You could really see the quilting on the black better in the daylight. Great quilt, so colourful. Unfortunately, the sun and I don't agree very well. I don't tan but burn to a crisp. To sew away the summer in a nice covered sceened in porch, sounds like paradise to me.

    I have sewed outside for years. Learned not to when it is windy out! Chasing all over the neighborhood for little squares. HOWEVER, today's the day!!!!!!! I am heading out to sew 412 squares together together and put together a baby quilt. It is going to be a gorgeous day today. RAIN TOMORROW - why not?
    So, I'll listen to the birds, my audio book, visit with the neighbors as they walk down the alley and sew my blocks together. Depending on the day, I will either have a nice glass of wine or an icy O'Doul's!

    Enjoy your outdoor sewing room! Edie
