I worked on Sharon's quilt and have 2 blocks of FMQ done. I thought the parts left only needed black thread, but I was mistaken. I needed a few other colors. Ooops! Maybe I need to double check my project before I toss it in a bag and haul it off with me 3 hours from home!

While I was at the beach with the ladiesI also finished constructing the apron I have had cut out for a year. That wasn't officially on the list, but it's done.
Aaand because I can NOT stay out of a quilt shop, I bought a new birthday panel for our classroom, and a kit for a set of eyeglasses cases, and some fabric to make a few more in colors that I like better. I was supporting a small business. That's my story and I'm sticking to it!

That's great that you got another UFO done,
Ok --I'm not getting it -- you were sewing at the beach? I'm jealous.
I would add these under your #5 UFO as 5.1 and DONE. Great.

Suzanne,
Every January, a group of us get together at our timeshare condo on the Washington coast. It has towering windows that look out over the jetty. We usually storm watch from inside instead of plopping in beach chairs to catch a few rays. This year we had dangerous surf warnings and were woken up with 20' waves crashing over the jetty wall Saturday morning.

We get the woodstove going, drag out our projects, and chatter away. We've had scrapbooking, knitting, crocheting, painting, weaving, sewing, cross stitching, quilting happen in that living room.

We catch up on each other's lives, laugh and cry over the events. This year there were only half of us due to Covid situations. It worked out OK, but we missed our friends.
