Greetings!
GrammaDeb ~ Are you doing CCS for greeting cards? I love doing those but they are very time consuming.
I had a great time with a friend yesterday. I’m trying to inspire her to get back to sewing on some of her UFO quilts. She mostly does CCS and knitting. Got in some knitting during the seminar.
I found fabric to bind the chickadee table topper, came home, ironed it and cut it into strips, and packed it up to take to the lake. I also packed up some of the squares needed to complete a couple more rows on the Moda Terain quilt, so have those with me, too. I bought three other pieces of fabric: one to put on my ironing board to try to keep my cover in better shape when I’m using spray starch; one to use for scraps when I want to experiment with free motion quilting or make a prototype of something; and one just because it loved me (and it was on the sale table).
We also checked out a new-to-us quilt store in the area, and I bought a fat quarter of fabric to do something with for Iris (it had peace signs on it).
So last night I kitted up the floss needed for a couple of CCS motifs for Mother’s Day cards, and made a list of a couple colors I needed to pick up on our way out of town this morning. And I nearly finished my WIP CCS motif. I just need to add some Colonial knots (alternative to French knots).
Did quite a bit of knitting on the wedding afghan on our 3+ hour drive to the lake. Weather was sunny and warm for our drive and beautiful when we reached our destination.
