What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

 This morning Patrick wasn't doing that good. So, I went walking with Ron. We got in a good 6 laps. 

Then I came in and got ready to go with Debbie for coffee. Even though I drink tea. We sat and chatted for a while. She had a bad day yesterday. So, we talked about a lot of different stuff. Had a good visit and I really enjoyed it. We have a good time when we do that. 

Came home and we looked for another plan on her quilt top. Patrick helped out. The top is really pretty. It ...

This morning Katt called. So, Ron and I didn't go walking. He had family coming and I was messing with my game. I needed to get the entries to the fair done as well. I'm ready to take them in this week. 

After things calmed down in the game, I headed downstairs to get a few things done. Once I got started, I kept going. First, I cut backing and batting for 2 quilts. Then I washed the backings. I have those ready to go to Colleen along with some panels. 

Once all that was done, I decided ...

This morning, I needed to leave early for our meeting and presentation.  Patrick loaded up the car for me and I was on my way. I had to go to the fair today to pick up the tickets for everyone to get into the fair for our table. Then got stuck at the light and was 20 mins late. 

I passed out the tickets, we chatted about what needed to be done. Of course, they wanted more from me, so I now have one more job to do. I seriously wish I could pass some of this off on them ...

This morning, I was busy playing my games as well as working on dessert for Patrick. I cleaned up the kitchen, because it was driving me crazy how everything is piling up. I hate kitchens that have a lot of stuff in the sink or by it, as well as appliances all over the counter. So, I got my rear in gear and put a lot of stuff away. Dishwasher was emptied (that's almost daily lately), and the kitchen was back to being open and enjoyable to walk in. 

Before I could start, Ron called and wanted to walk ...

Today I was up and enjoying the morning. Patrick left for golfing. 

I went walking with Ron and made it 5 laps. He wasn't doing so good today on the walking. We won't be walking again till Saturday between what he's doing and what I'm doing. 

It was time to get the quilts ready for Thursday. 

 This morning, I was up and out the door. Patrick picked some veggies from the garden to give to Sandy and Geralyn. When I got there, I had some stuff to put in the clothing box. Sandy had texted me that the swat team was there. I thought she was joking. After dropping the clothes in the box, I headed around the building to park. They were there in front of the grange. They stayed for another 10 mins after I went into the grange. We watched as they pulled out and headed up Zenkner Valley (where we used to ...

 This morning, I was up with Patrick. He went golfing and I got ready for my meeting at the grange. 

First things first, I had to send off the newspaper clipping to Bryan to see if he could get them. I hope he does, because I need him to look them over and find out how they are related to us. I don't have the time to do that. Actually, I do, but I would rather play games. 

Then I got some ice tea at McD's. Geralyn and I were the only ones there, till moms showed up ...

This morning, I was up early and just enjoying the day. We had a "war" going on in the game, so I was ready when the time came. 

Once that was over with, I cleaned up the kitchen and then went walking with Ron. We got 5 laps in. He thought we weren't walking today. 

I seriously needed to do something other than game playing. So, I went downstairs, put my earbuds in and listened to my book. Finished it actually. 

This morning, I walked with Ron, and we got 6 laps around the neighborhood. Then I had to hurry and get myself out the door to the museum.  I had to stop at Dutch Brothers first to get Debbie and myself a hot drink. - Yeah, I know, hot weather and buying a hot drink. Just couldn't help myself! 

Arrived and was needed as soon as I got there. Debbie was watching her grandson's game on the phone app. I was bringing the quilts in. lol We loaded the quilts into the museum and feel better about what we ...

 This morning, I went out early to pick blueberries. I was able to get 4 cups. I didn't clean them up yet, but I will tomorrow. 

After that, Ron called, and I told him we would wait till later today. By that time, it would be cooler - so I thought. We reached 106 degrees at 6 pm - so I know we were closer to 110 degrees today. When he did call at 7:30 pm, it was still too hot to go walking. Told him we will wait till Thursday to go out and walk. 

I headed downstairs. I ...

This morning, I was up earlier than I had originally planned. I slept downstairs to stay cool. Sophie wasn't happy with me last night because Patrick slept upstairs. She meowed to let me know I needed to go upstairs. It was funny watching her talking to me as she walked back and forth to the stairs. 

I also realized last night that I needed to get the batting and backing ready for Colleen today. So, I cut it at 10:30 last night. 

This morning, I came up and took a shower. When I got my phone, I realized ...

This morning, I was up about the time Patrick was leaving for golf. I played for awhile and then I headed out the door. 

My dental appointment was at 10:30 am. I decided on a new dentist and I found that I really like this guy better than the one I had. Worst part of it is that I haven't been in over a year. So, this time they checked my teeth and found I needed to get 3 of my fillings redone because of cracks. Then he told me I needed a month guard at bed. He ...

This morning, I was up and playing games. I was expecting company, so I needed to vacuum and get a few things done. Laundry went in, and dishwasher was ran. 

Connie arrived around 11 am. She dropped off 4 quilts that were ready for bindings. I gave them to Patrick to take to moms, since he had to go up to Olympia for blood tests. I stayed home to do some other stuff. While she was here, we talked about the quilt top I was thinking of doing. 

 Today we enjoyed being able to sleep in. Today wasn't a day I walked with Ron. He was going golfing with one of his sons. 

We headed out to Safeway and got some groceries we needed. Also got a Birthday card for Sister-in-law. Then came home. Put everything away and then headed out to Olympia. 

I had my ultrasound for my thyroid. Hopefully it will be fine. I don't need another thing going wrong. 

Came home - again - and I decided I needed to get the quilts ready for the museum. 

The label that Stitch'n Peace put on ...

Today was a good day for enjoying the beautiful weather. 

This is the road Ron and I walk on. It's really pretty today. I loved the sky blue going from light to dark. There is houses there, but the trees cover them. 

This morning I was up before Patrick. Then I went walking with Ron. 

Came back in the house and figured it was time for me to go down and get a few things done. I needed to get the quilt top done and off. 

I trimmed the sides, because it was way too wide. But now it will work. Patrick liked ...

This morning, I was up early. Can't seem to sleep later than 7:30 am because of the sun coming in the window. 

After Patrick was up, I was trying to decide what I wanted to do today. He was going to work on the strawberry jam. He was making that for Nancy, Phil, and mom. Think he has enough from last year to keep him busy. 

I went downstairs to get fabric for Georgie together. Then while I was down there, decided to try and work on that quilt top. 

I was working on getting that corner done ...

This morning, I was out the door and on my way to the grange. I stopped and got a Chai tea at the coffee stand. It's more expensive than the Dutch Brothers I go to. Plus, the taste is a little different, even though I know they use the same ingrediencies.

It was just Geralyn and me today. We chatted and had a good time. She was marking her fabric to work on a quilt that is embroidered. It will be pretty when she's done. She called this quilt she's work on "dead grandma's quilt." I ...

This morning, I was a little slow getting up today. I played my game for about 30 minutes and then went walking with Ron. We did 5 laps today. 

Came back in and had to get working on the quilts for tomorrow. I had labels that needed to be done. 

First was Nancy Smith's. I had to finish the binding on this last night. It's all ready to go. 

Another panel quilt, but not an eagle. It will do fine tomorrow, I'm sure. This is one Connie did. 

Can't remember who did this one. Either Connie ...

I had Patrick take out the quilts to the car. I had 7 quilts going to the museum. Then I had 3 left behind. Debbie wasn't there today so Kristi was my second in command and it worked out great. 

Afterwards I took the second guy from the left home. He lives ...
