Home again home again jig a dee jig!

I am back home as of today. I had to go to my daughter's house for a couple of days since there was no electricity at my house. Honestly, doesn't my landlord get it! Oh well. things are finally fixed now.



I finished the binding on this quilt last nite. All ready for the label and just in time for my boss' birthday next month.
Nice and quiet at my daughter's, no one to bother me except the dogs from time to time that need to go outside.

This weekend is a full one for me, and I doubt any sewing will be done. But you never know what I can sneak in.

Hope all of you are staying cool, we finally have a break from our 98 degree weather. Wow and the storms. Hope everyone is safe.

Hot Hot and really Hot

Ok, I don't know about you, but it is really hot here. I mean really really hot. We just had a huge storm this morning and now the humidity is creeping in. It is 94 degrees out and the humidity makes it feel like 194! Just awful.
I am taking a break from sewing as it is just too darn hot.
But I did get the quilting done on the lap from fats quilt and the turning twenty again quilt this weekend. They look just beautiful and the binding is on the lap quilt and the hand work started. But, wow way too hot to have that on my lap doing the hand work on the binding.
I actually have to go to my daughters for a couple days. I can't use my air conditioner cause of a electrical problem in the house. My landlord is working on it and it seems like it is taking forever.

My four little grandchildren figured out a way to cool off. On memorial day they enjoyed everything and anything that had to do with water. Here we are all dryed off waiting to eat lunch. Trust me, soon after this picture was taken they were soaking wet again. Oh to be a child again........................
