I am so excited! This early mailing tells me to get the project I am working on done up and ready to put away for a bit so I can work BOOM23! I must make sure I have the floor swept up a vacuumed before I start and again clear my cutting table. Right now I am still working on a scrappy quilt and things pile so high when working with scraps.

Great butterfly pictures Kass!

my sewing room doubles as a guest room and my son will be here Thursday so no boom blocks for me until after he leaves in a few weeks.

I am in Omaha with my daughters family. We are staying in an inexpensive Airbnb with an old tennis court. We are playing every morning at 7:30 am. We are really enjoying our bonus grandchildren. Took the 11 year olds boy on a bike ride over the Omaha pedestrian bridge and to the main library. To day we’ll spend time with the 8 year old granddaughter. They are delightful.

Kass you would love it here. There are about 50 butterflies hanging outside their front door in the mint plants.

My my son in law is a chef. We’ve had a Korean feast one night, fish tacos with homemade salsa and cabbage stuff last night. If it weren’t for the tennis I’d be gaining a lot of weight. Fortunately the weather hasn’t been blazingly hot.

Sounds like you are having a great time, MJP!

I'm going to try and get some quilt tops quilted so I'll have time to play with Boom fabric when it comes. Saturday is my donation meeting for this month, so I need to get on those quilt tops!

Hope you all have a great day.

Mj sounds like a heavenly vacation.

Came home for a few days and also trying to quilt several donation quilts and make a simple quilt as you go strip tablerunner for my sister. Not turning out as I expected. Don’t like my fabric choices. Will probably never finish it

Oh sorry Terri. That's sad. Some days are like that...

Thanks for all the compliments on the pics of the butterflies and flowers, we did have a great time, it isn't as big and fancy as some of the butterfly houses I've been to but it is local.

Sounds like everyone is keeping busy until the squishies arrive.

There is an older brother in our congregation who always admires the ties I make for Gary so I made one for him today here is a pic

He will love it Kass, all the deep but what I'd call subdued colors

Love those pics, Kass.

Beautiful tie. Beautiful flowers. And beautiful butterflies. The one with blue on the lower part we have in our backyard. I see it usually at least once a day. But seeing them in a butterfly house is a whole other experience.
