Fabric Shops

I am so tired of the few fabric shops we have in our area...the ones we have are very nice..good fabric...but not enough of them..no competitive pricing anymore.....

Oh well; what to do ......It is a beautiful day today..sunny and warm.....was in the city all morning running errands...checking out the fabric......love it....just miss the shops that have closed down lately. Anyway; off to find a new project to start.....I love to finish one; but then the dilemma.....ok; what's next??? I have to be kept busy.....a sin; really....lol

Friday..at last

Good morning....I am so glad to see Friday here....not sure why; I work harder on the weekends with my husband. lol....but it is fun having him home with me...doing things around the yard before winter really sets in.  I took a pic of a few of my quilt blocks so you could see them before it's put together...you know; it has been years since I made this pattern...so simple, but fun to go back to also.  Well; here goes.............

Having my morning tea and trying to think of something to tell..this daily challenge is difficult..I just wish I was sewing every day.  Would be easier..I am starting to make mittens for my little ones...so; we'll see how that goes...not much to see though.lol........getting snow tires put on car this afternoon....not news worthy....lol.

Ohhhhhh almost forgot...I started a new quilt top yesterday...tree/house...my husband made this pattern up for me years ago.  I haven't pieced one in ages...so; I will take a pic of the block or two when ready and post that....there we go!!! sewing...........
