Sorting through college daughter's things, I came across this little wallhanging I made her one Christmas. These batiks are so "her" and I love that it gets to hang in our house for the summer. (As she was pretty adamant that it was only on "loan"). (love that!)
I'm behind on all my sewing. I haven't even looked at my yellows for the June RSC and my ALYoF June Goal still sits exactly where it's been. But that's okay! I have five days of summer school left then watch me sew. And so far, it looks like I have a sewing weekend coming up, which means I just may meet those June goals yet! Yah!
Just curious, what are your weekend plans?
With Smiles!

So happy she 'loaned' it to you. Usually the last weekend of the month is to check that everything on the list is done - do some reorganizing - and get things kitted and lined up for the next month.
ReplyDeleteWhen you are retired weekends are the same as the rest of the time... so more of the same. In fact, we have learned not to shop or go out much during the weekends. There are sooooo many people and traffic here... especially on the weekends, that we stay home. Just can't take the rat race anymore.
ReplyDeleteSo it's sewing!!!!!!!!!! Working on the backs of the H2H quilts... found a hole in the one that will have to get patched. (Putting that on the blog... sort of a True Confessions thing.)
Hurray! SS almost over. More sewing! More blogging?
Hugs
Love the batiks in that quilt...it shines!!
ReplyDeleteI love 'your' wallhanging! Very pretty batiks in it! I am trying to sew,sew, sew to finish my goal of all the star points for my Shimmer quilt. I need 480!
ReplyDeleteYour twister hanging is so sweet! Love the colours. I am getting ready for the family to come home for a holiday. Arriving next week so lots of preparations!
ReplyDeleteI just finished up school health at the office yesterday. Free as a bird until 8/4! Packing this weekend. John and I are traveling to Florence, Al (Alabama Chanin) for the holiday weekend and then Atlanta for a week! Can't wait to see what you sew this summer! Enjoy your quilt art on loan!!! ;)
ReplyDeleteI just added 3 projects to my line-up! Sewing whatever I want, but sewing none the less.
ReplyDeleteThat is so cute that she loaned you her wall-hanging! This weekend, I want to work on some Farmer's Wife Blocks.
ReplyDeletehow bright and pretty this is...nice to have it on loan for awhile! :)
ReplyDeleteI love doing that twister block.
ReplyDeletePut you pedal to the metal and enjoy your sewing weekend.
I hope to finish the RSC yellow sampler blocks, enjoy my sons friends 21st and then try to do some more on his pixelation quilt
How sweet of her to "loan" you the quilt. I'm sure it's nice to have something so "her" in the house again.
ReplyDeleteooo - Batiks are so pretty in the Twister! I've got a few quilts on loan for the gap year that our recent college graduate is taking to earn money for post-grad. Love it!
ReplyDeleteWaooo just beautiful!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty Batiks.
ReplyDeleteIt's like looking at a kaleidoscope.
ReplyDeleteWell, the weekend has come and gone, but I can tell you I did next to nothing, and that counts as a pretty good weekend to me :)
I love seeing this in batiks. So pretty.
ReplyDeleteI love this one Val because those are so me with the batiks and bright colors!
