Chris left early yesterday for his annual Myrtle Beach golf trip with a group of high school friends. I admire that he is still so close to high schoolmates. I went to school in a small factory town and couldn’t wait to get out so I’m not really connected to anyone there anymore. I’m closest to friends that I’ve made since we moved to Richmond almost 30 years ago.
So, what do you think I did on my first day alone? Sleep late? No, I had a chiropractor appointment. Sew all day? Nope. I deep cleaned the stove! Crazy, huh? It’s been on my list for a few weeks. I decided to get it over with while I had a good book to listen to.
After that I got into the sewing room late in the afternoon and I pieced some end-of-bolt pieces for quilt backs. I got a back made for these 2 veterans quilts and got them loaded.
While I was loading the quilt I oted how happy the mosaic wall makes me. It would be dungeon like in my quilting space if not for that wall. After 8 years, it still makes me happy every day.
I also pieced a back for this quilt. It’s possible that I can have all 3 of these veterans quilts finished by the end of the month. My weekend will not be totally alone. I’m visiting a friend today and hiking with some other friends Sunday, but there should be ample quilting time in the mix.
