It was another busy week. I got back from camp last Sunday, put away my things and was tired. Monday I cut out the remaining pieces (I think) for my Storm at Sea Blocks for my bed quilt.
Wednesday was workday at my house and Wednesday evening my friend June and I got together and had a nice happy hour dinner at a local restaurant. Then we went out to a college nearby and attended a Women's History Symposium. It was very interesting and a nice night out.
Thursday I had a 7 a.m. dental hygiene appointment and from 9-2 p.m attended a Pedal to the Metal event by quilters from my guild and others to make quilt tops for a comfort quilt group several of our members are involved in. They make quilts, pillow cases, dog beds and many things and donate them to local groups and hospitals in need. We sewed 10 strips together. Then others ironed and cut them into 5 inch strips.
This was the first top I made.
What I will be working on for Slow Sunday Stitching is putting the circles on the cross members of my redwork quilt and sew buttons on. I also need to put a hanging sleeve on this one.
attending a Women's History Symposium sounds interesting. I wish at times that I lived closer to Little Rock where I'm sure they have things like that to attend - in my small town country area we do not
ReplyDeleteNeat top you sewed and I adore those redwork blocks of yours!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great week with friends. Love your redwork. Have a lovely day working on this beauty. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteThat's a sweet and simple top you sewed at the work day, Karrin! How fun to get a whole top sewn in a day. Your redwork is looking beautiful! Happy stitching today!
ReplyDeleteOh my, that's an early dental appointment. One of my least favourite places. =) I think if I managed to do all that you do, Karrin, I would sleep for a week. Your Rework quilt is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteAnother busy week for you. I love the look of your redwork quilt.
ReplyDeleteI just love the Redwork quilt, and the quilt top turned out great.
ReplyDeleteGreat charity top and beautiful rework! Gail at the cozy quilter
