Saturday catch-up

The biggest thing done this week was finishing the binding on this RSC project from the past couple of years.  The Wisdom blocks (Fat Quarter Shop freebie) just kept collecting until I had enough.


This is WHY I love scrappy quilts - so bright and cheerful.  


So far I've only made 1 of these blocks for the upcoming guild bus trip.  We can make however many blocks we want, and enter them into a drawing to win them all.  Old Windmill was the name on the pattern.  Our instructions were to use bright colors, so it was right up my alley. 


No sewing -except some binding - actually happened yesterday or will happen today, because these 3 kids are staying with us for a couple of days.  The oldest grandchild is Mason and he's flanked by Olivia and Jonah (twin siblings).   Yesterday we did some "tourist" things around Mitchell while grandpa worked.  They also helped him with some yardwork needed after this week's big storm.  Today will involve some golf and maybe some swimming pool time.  And then our house will be strangely quiet again after their mom comes to pick them up. 

Check out more RSC fun . . .

Had to go back and read your post from yesterday - that looks like quite the storm - I'm sure you're glad it's passed on by. Pretty quilt finish! Enjoy those grandkids!
