Lotsa Love!!

Hellooooooo!!! How are all of my lovely blogging buddies this week? Hopefully you're well and enjoying some mild weather, whether your weather is spring weather or autumn weather. PHEW! That's a LOT of weather! :0)

Days here on top of our 'hill' have still be warm, but evenings are cooling down ... which made for some wonderful conditions for a mini sewing retreat this last weekend that I shared with the crazy crew from our Friday Night Sit N Sew group. For the first time on one of our retreats, I took my trusty Husky with me to do some machine sewing ... which resulted in many shocked expressions and exclamations from my fellow Friday Nighters! :0) I usually sit quietly in the corner hand stitching ... well ... I sit in the corner hand stitching! Tee! Hee! Hee!

I was so hard at work through the weekend that I didn't remember to take any photos - Oops! But ... as well as VERY tight neck and shoulder muscles (OUCH!!) , I do have some results to show for the time ...

Ta Da! Lotsa love! :0) The light is making the colours a bit washed out and the white blown out, but you get the idea. I've now got all of the pieced hearts finished for the border of my new VW Beetle quilt that I'm working on. The Beetles have also been appliqued over the weekend, but I haven't got a photo yet. Soon, I promise. :0)

Lots happening in the Meares' Madhouse this week, which means there won't be much sewing, and a road trip coming up on the weekend to help my Grandma celebrate her 93rd birthday, so it might be a little while before I get back here ... but like Arnie ... I WILL be back! :0) Enjoy the rest of your week. Til next time ...

BEAR HUGS!

CHEERS!
