WIP Wednesday, November 4, 2020

Oh what a week it has been.  Here's what happened...


I quilted it with the 7 Treasures of Buddha giant template board from Circle Lord.  Nice texture!

I left my camera unattended in the truck with the "helper".  This is actually the only photo I have of this particular friend and me together.
 


Even though I finished a project on my list, she gave me another to quilt.  The weather is in the mid 60's today.  Woohoo.  Looks like I could get a little quilting done this week and possibly next!

It's been a long night.  It does matter to me who wins the presidential election.  I voted.  I encouraged my circle of friends and family to vote.  Although I am not going to voice more of my political opinion, I strongly feel that no matter who wins, The KING is still on the throne.  (I'm referring to God.)  He was there yesterday, he's there today, and he's going to be there TOMORROW.  We serve a good God.

I got a few stitches done on my Linen & Threads SAL.  


My Garden Party (design by Bonnie Hunter) still sits on my sewing machine awaiting the little red border to make it easier for me to longarm.


I currently have 60 on-going projects on my list.  They are separated into stages.  This seems like a lot of projects, but I used to have 93 items on my list.  I love the fact that it has gone down so much.

After all that rain we had for what - two weeks? - it is nice to see the sunshine and for it to be warm. I guess since we has a frost this is now Indian Summer. Looks like you are making progress with longarm quilting and The Garden Party quilt. It would be nice to get Garden Party quilted before it gets too cold.

I voted too and also agree that we serve 1 King! Praise God. So by the looks of your helper all clad in a warm jacket it is getting nippy up there. Congratulations on getting a finish. The Budda Treasures pattern is nice. you are getting a lot done.
