Today, I met up with the Girlzzzzz, Barb and KT, for another sewing day! We invited Mary to join us and Barb and I met Mary for breakfast at IHOP. YUM!!!
Barb had a Minionade or something and it looked good! I wish that I had seen it before I ordered my milk....
But my breakfast was yummy!!
When we got to the shop, we got all set up and then I had to be on a conference call for work for about 10 minutes. Too bad there was some 'line interference' on my end, right, Barb??? HOLLAAAAA!! lol
When I got to sewing, I finished up my giveaway prizes by making the last Stitch 'N Chix bag. Woo hoo!!! I should be able to get everything all packaged up tomorrow night and mailed off on Tuesday! I will be glad to get my room back! lol
After finishing the bag, I moved onto the borders on the Jitterbug quilt. I was going to sew the binding strips together and get those pressed, but I kept moving them aside and never got to it.
Mary made a tote bag for her knitting from start to finish. It's very cute!!!
And per my plan, I used most of my leftover Jitterbug fabric for the backing. It took a while, but I got the backing made and used up some yardage. WOO HOO! It was nice to be able to use the shop's design wall, but I did a lot of climbing around on a chair since the quilt is so large.
I'm pretty sure that the backing is large enough and I can't wait to get it quilted! It's going on my bed! I think the dogs will love it!
Now, I need to pay some attention to the dogs.

That breakfast looks SOOOOOO yummy! And that drink----I think I'm feeling a bit parched now....
OMGoodness, Jitterbug has adorable fabrics!!!!! How big is it??
I love the Jitterbug quilt
Love and hugs Gina xxx
Love the Jitterbug quilt! Who can resist polka dots? ;)
The Jitterbug is great - I especially like the back!
THAT DRINK LOOKS SO GOOD. I WONDER WHAT FLAVOR IT IS? THE BACKING WORKED OUT GREAT. A GOOD WAY TO USE THE LEFT OVERS FROM THE TOP. LOVE THE QUILT TOP ALSO. IT WAS NICE YOU GUYS COULD GET TOGETHER TO SEW. I THINK I WOULD GET MORE DONE IF I HAD SOMEONE TO SEW WITH AND AN AREA SET UP TO WORK IN. I THINK THE PUPS ARE WONDERING WHERE MAMA IS.
You have been busy!! The quilt looks great!
Great job using up the leftover fabric! Your breakfast does look yummy!
Fabulous bust! Love those diagonal stripes in your quilt. They really give it movement! Good job!
