What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

Good morning, my friends. The title of this post probably sounds more ominous than it should. I really only mean it's the beginning of the end of the year. December 1st. It's all downhill from here. When we reach the bottom, it'll be 2026. To this blogger born in the 1950's it has me thinking I've entered some kind of futuristic sci-fi novel. The good news is that I'm the one writing the story...for now, at least.

Good morning, my friends. It was a busy day yesterday. During the presidential campaign, I was amused when Governor Josh Shapiro of Pennsylvania said, "My team is guided by three letters every single day: G-S-D." And, if you missed that, he spelled it out..."Getting sh*t done." When I can cross everything off a day's to-do list, I announce it to Mike: "I got sh*t done today." Admittedly, I didn't start sewing together the Merry, Merry Snowmen yesterday, but I got a lot of other stuff done.

First, I finished off My Embroidered Garden.

Good morning, my friends. We survived our grocery shopping trip yesterday. We even managed to walk to and from the car without getting wet. The rain paused for a bit in the morning, but it'll be back in full swing today, along with plenty of wind. As always, I just want the power to stay on.

After lunch, I as able to make my way to the sewing room. On yesterday's agenda was to get started on the third of six rows for the Gumballs quilt. I have several scrappy quilts on my WIPs list these days, and ...

Good morning, my friends. It was the worst possible morning in cat land. It was raining...hard...and Smitty was relegated to the sheltered part of his catio.

My morning was spent finishing off Block 7 of the Raggedy & Friends project. I'll set this aside until I'm ready to piece together the block.

Good morning, my friends. It wasn't terribly warm yesterday, but the humidity was high, making it feel warmer than it actually was. Smitty was outside for quite a while. When he came in, he fell over in a dead heap to cool his tummy furs on the wood floor.

Good morning, my friends. Happy Labor Day and welcome to September! Time marches on, doesn't it? Fall will be here soon enough. Our landscape is already showing signs. 

It was a busy weekend for me. Matthew was here on Saturday and spent the day with us. It was good seeing him and hearing about all the things he's involved with. Then yesterday, I had some housework to do, and we also headed down to the neighbors' for an open house. We didn't stay long, but it still took a chunk out of the day.

Despite being busy ...
