Busy Day

Today is going to be a busy day! I've got to finish up my order of quilting supplies, take tapes back to the library, get stamps, mail bills, and gather tax stuff. My husband and I have a Christian ministry and I have to get those contributions notices mailed out. So, this will be short and sweet, hopefully. LOL

We had a very nice weekend. The weather was just wonderful, Praise the Lord. My DH had to work Saturday til 3:00. It was VERY foggy Sat. morning so I delayed going to the Paradise Piecemakers meeting. I told myself I had X amount of time to work on the Kraz-z Quilters scrapbook. Well, I GOT into it. The fog didn't really lift til 10:00 o'clock. I wasn't really in the mood to sew anyway so I kept working on the scrapbook. Then I ate lunch and went. There weren't many there. But it's always fun to be with those ladies. They bring their sewing machines and projects or handwork and sew. They are so sweet to each other; hugging and helping one another.

When I got home I worked on the scrapbook until I finished it! I ran out of clear sheets and posts. I picked some more of those up when we went to Wal-Mart yesterday. I need to add a few clip arts and it's done for 2007. Yeah!

I didn't get the block cut out from the Triangle Tricks book. I realized I had to get an order together so started that Friday afternoon. Tomorrow I should have time or today if I get everything done.

Blessings.

Saturday Fun!

Another party! Two in one week, boy I gotta watch my waistline. You shoulda seen the cake that Maurine made. It was straight from Southern Living--Italian Cream Cake with orange curd and decorated absolutely gorgeous with orange sections, greenery, cheeries, and toasted pecans. It tasted as wonderful as it looked. I took Broccoli Soup. Jo made a really different soup. Vegetable soup with spinach, sage, basil, potatoes, english peas, red bell peppers, and carrots. Very good! Emily made taco soup. We had pecan pie, buttermilk pie, Mississippi Mud, cookies, and candies. Plus cornbread, crackers and chips.
I really enjoy these group meetings. They meet every 4th Saturday except Nov. & Dec. and bring your own projects and sew all day. I got a lot done today. I didn't take the 4 Patch Stacked Posie project. Instead I decided to take the project I usually take to these meetings. My Time Travel quilt. I won some quilt blocks at guild meeting several years ago and decided to put them together with another alternate block to have a bed size quilt for my oldest DS. It requires making these little flying geese. I will have to make a gazillion! I didn't count but I got a lot made. So when I get off the computer; I am going to make more ; ) .
Blessings,
