Maybe we should move onto some photos...
Sherbet Pips by lamplight. I have had most of a quilt finished since spring, waiting for its border to be pieced. I finally did that and have the top all finished now. I almost got it basted, but when I laid out the backing it was riddled with pulls and flaws, so I returned that and ordered some online (in gray instead of white, which is what I wanted anyway, so yay, I guess).
The interesting thing about all these clips holding that new zipper in place is that after I got to about the second one I stopped and took them all off and continued just using my fingers to position everything. What do you mean that's not interesting?
A's treasures from playing outside--a cruddy looking leaf and a stone. Not a rock--a stone, according to him. His vocabulary and pronunciation astound me. I am truly blessed to have two very smart, good-looking nephews (and there's no bias there. None at all).
Got any fun plans this weekend? I'm having dinner tomorrow with a friend who I don't see enough, and then hopefully finishing up putting some edge stitches on a fleece blanket. Then I have to check my list. Busy is better than bored snacking, I suppose. Toodles!
I love reading your Friday ramblings. I love reading them when I've just woken up :-) My plans for the weekend are: getting groceries, cleaning our bedroom and some Tyle Pennington style decluttering of our guestroom (as it's secretly my yarn and fabric storehouse and I think my husband is starting to know...), some crocheting for Syria victims.

Have you ever been walking down the road, and see a stick that looks like a snake, and then it IS a snake? True story.

Oh Bethany, you called me by name -- I can't say I'm afraid of spiders, I am just completely freaked by them as there is nothing so repulsive to me. I have a black dog, and she pulls out little fuzz-balls from time to time. I always have to grab a paper towel before picking them up. If it should move, I'd be out the front door!
ReplyDeleteI have a hair ball on my hall carpet that scares me like that daily. There's a lot of crap around it though because of the decorating going on in the spare room though, so I couldn't possibly hoover it up...
