Subject: RE: BS: De-Cluttering August - progress
I mentioned a few things to Rog, but he worked until about 1230a this morning, so we didn't get to bed and sleep until about 2a, so we're both kind of tired. I decided not to let him or that stop me, SO...I got out the sewing machine and got ready to finish a baby quilt we started for Morgan almost five years ago.:-) Well, we had to go buy thread because I didn't have any, then we went for a drive to get some sweets, which turned into a great nap for me. When we got home, I did finish the blankie. It's in the wash now, but I did get a picture of it. It's not my best effort as for sewing, uneven seams, edges, etc. BUT I think my daughter and son and I did a good job on the characters. My sister started a tradition of baby blankets done with colouring book characters stencilled on, then coloured in with fabric paints, then quilted. Oh, I still have to do the yarn tie thingies, but essentially I am done and THAT clutter is gone off my dresser and outta the kitchen. I do not like straight pins!
