What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

 This morning, I was up early. Slept good but just couldn't go back to sleep. 

Sophie was waiting on me. She seems to love stretching out on the couch first thing in the morning. 

I played for a while. Patrick asked me to go walking with him, so we did 3 laps. He starting to join me in my walking. Surprising but nice. We chat about this and that. Almost like being in the car together. lol 

Came in and got busy on doing the billing. I needed to send out bills for the water. So, that took most ...

 This morning, Patrick and I enjoyed being able to sleep in - but I didn't. 

Got to enjoy a bit of time on the tablet and then need to drop of Christmas gifts. We headed to Nancy's first and gave her her gift. Then we went to moms and dropped off her gifts. I was going to go to the mail box, but had the wrong key. I had Nancy's. Too funny. I don't know where mom put her key, so didn't bother. Patrick watered her plants. Then we headed to Phil and Emily's. Patrick ...

 This morning, we were up bright and early. Patrick had his kidney doctor appointment, and it was at 8:30 am.  We were out the door in time. Got up there and were in and out pretty quickly. Even Patrick's blood draws were done fast. I like his kidney doctors, she's a kick and she's on it with his medications. She's the first one to call him when his electrolytes are off. Too bad she's not a GP, or I would go to her! lol 

We then went to Costco! OH, MY! It was crowded ...

 This morning I was up early. One of those mornings, but I needed to be. I had things to do today. 

I headed to the bank to find out why 3 checks were not cashed. It was a month since I wrote the checks. Then I stopped at Phils to give him his ornament.  Once that was done, I headed to the grange. 

Sandy was there already and ironing her fabrics. I pulled out my bonsai tree embroidery and worked on it. 

 This morning I was up, played a bit, and went back to bed. Before I did, I wrote a piece in the kingdom chat letting them know how ticked I was that because I didn't spell out the name, and put "..." they assumed I said, "@%$!" which I didn't. I let them know who wrong that was to go after someone over spelling. I don't know it if will help - but it made me feel better and I went back to bed. I slept another 2 hours. lol 

When I did get up and become part of this ...

 This morning I had to get everything ready to go. I had quilts, flyers, and quilt tops. Then it was off to embroidery.  

I listened to my book while heading over to Love's for gas. Then headed to Centralia to get coffee and head to the grange. 

 

 We had our embroidery meeting today. Mom and Sandy's friend made 5 of us. We had a good meeting with mom chatting up a storm. 

I got more done on my Space Needle. Sandy said I should add a picnic tablet. At first I was wondering why, the she said,  "you mentioned the picnic table that your grandmother said was the Taylor picnic table." That was on Alki Point in Seattle.  Back when there wasn't a lot of people going there. Like a secret.  When I visited with cousin Cindy 10 years ago, it was still there. But ...

Patrick was out the door for golfing when I finally got up. I had my list ready to go. Had breakfast and headed out the door. Since it was Monday,  I was ready for my list of things to do.

Headed out yo the grange, but had olplaces to be before and after.  I went to the bank, Safeway for coffee at Starbucks, post office and old Fullers store for cupcakes. I asked how much a really cute moose dessert was and was told $11 each. I about died! They used to have the best cakes and cupcakes but they ...

This morning Patrick went golfing and I went to embroidery.  I stopped off at the post office to find it closed. I told someone going in and he said, "Oh. Columbus Day." So. I headed to embroidery. 

I worked on my Seattle piece. Decided to add color to my Space Needle.  I think it looks better. Still have a lot to do. 

Tried to stop at Copy Depot but they were closed as well.  So came on home.

Helped Patrick get some butternut squash in the freezer as well as the berry pie I made. Of course Patrick had 2 ...

 This morning I was up and enjoying a few minutes playing before going to embroidery.  Sandy and I enjoyed a fun day working on our embroidery.  I worked on my Space Needle part. 

O have a few ideas how to improve this. The black darker lines are my embroidery work. The others are my guide lines. 

Sandy was braiding the floss. It's supposed to help with the threads getting tangled. I did add few of mine. I think I will do that with my threads as I add them to the taps. I need to remember to bring my ...

Today Patrick woke me before he headed out for golfing. I got up to get moving to our meeting.  Sandy V and Sandy were there with me. Took some veggies too. 

I finished my whale. Then I finished the potholder I started last night. 

Then started another one. They go fast and break up my getting tired of the same thing. 

Went to get 2 quilts but mistook Connie for Colleen.  Left Connie's laughing and went to Colleen's to get 2 quilts. Then went to pick up a quilt from Debbie while having coffee at Dutch Brothers.  

Finally ...
