Today's accomplishments

First, I was able to sleep in this morning and the little dogs were very happy to not have to hear the alarms going off!

Once we were up and fed, I cleaned the house and did some chores and watched a bit of TV. My first order of quilting business was loading the Milky Way quilt onto the frame which I have been putting off for quite a while.



I ran to the library to drop off some books and I left the dogs out of their cage since I wasn't going to be gone for too long. They were so excited when I got back. I keep trying to give them a little freedom when I can, but I don't think that I could leave them out for an entire workday. We passed the afternoon by napping a little and sewing some.

This evening, the city where I live had a fireworks display at the park that is right up the hill from my condo. There was lots of commotion in the parking lot because everyone here has people over to watch the display. Here is how the ninjas handled the loud booms.




I'm so glad that I don't have neurotic dogs that go nuts at any loud boom or crack of thunder!

I was able to get the binding put on the fairy quilt. (And yes, Barb, that's what I did. You can't really tell and since it is only going to be sitting in a shop.... Besides, it still took me 2 hours to do it this way. There is no way I would have gotten it hand stitched down in that amount of time.)



And a close up of a corner.



And I finished the lap size Yellow Brick Road for the shop, too. It looks great in person!



Ok, now Max is whining to go to bed and I am sleepy. I need my rest to get up and sew, sew, sew tomorrow while I watch my movies!

For the record, this is 3 out of 11 goals finished. Woo hoo!!!
