A good stitching day

Thursday, September 13, 2017

I made a quick trip to the Credit Union this morning. I usually plan on a quick trip and then stand in the line-up for half an hour which ends up not being very quick. But today I made it through the line very quickly.

I had time this morning to do a bit of Cranberry Hall accounting, wrap a few more fat quarters and even empty my physical in-basket. I did some tidying and I can almost see the top of my quilting table – the first sight of it in a long time.

Today was a hand stitching day – 3 at 1. I ran out of energy before our time was up and definitely before I ran out of stitching. The two ladies I stitch with started a new project but I didn’t have the pattern so I’ll be a week behind the next time we get together. Gail is planning to rent time on her long arm and I told her I’d be very interested. I have several quilts ready but I need to wait until I can manage a long session of standing.

We’ll be catching the Texada ferry early tomorrow but we have a couple of chairs and a few more bins to load in the morning. The chairs will be sitting upright in the truck bed and I hope we don’t look too much like the Beverly Hillbillies as we head out!
