Taking a quilting vacation

Starting tomorrow morning at daybreak I will be on a 5 day quilting vacation in my sewing room. My family and friends have all been for warned to not call or visit, unless its a major emergency.

I have some unfinished Bonnie K Hunter mystery quilts I would like to get completed along with her new mystery quilt for 2019.

I love that idea! If only I could get the cats to participate, I know my hubby would be ok with it. Ugh, sounds like heaven really!

May you find your joy!

When I was a single working parent I decided that since Thanksgiving wasn't an important day for me but was a big day for my son's father, that he could have our son every Thanksgiving. I was always working on a quilt for a Christmas present and so I spent Thanksgiving in blissful quiet, alternating sewing/quilting with bubble baths. Good times for which I was truly thankful
