My ceilings are done... the guys are just cleaning up now. In the meantime, I've actually been working. I made two postcards for an exchange that's due to be mailed by July 15th. They are done and ready to go into the mail tomorrow. I finished making the pieced background for an appliqued block I'm making. So I have gotten work done, tho nothing is finished, it's all progress. Here are my latest two folk art kitty blocks that I finished. They still need a little handwork (mouse tail and feet, whiskers, buttons for eyes and such), but the machine work is done:
There's proof I've been working. I can't wait til August - we get our 12th and final block for the folk art cat quilt. Then I can finish putting it together. Yay! I wonder how many people are doing this BOM, and how many will finish...
Well, I've got to take a walk-through and pay my contractor... Then it's time for dinner and another contractor coming for an estimate on more work to do ... it just never ends. While I love being a homeowner, there are times when I wish I lived in a condo and could depend on someone else to take care of exterior paint, raingutters, gardening, and all that outside stuff. In the meantime, it is what it is... sometimes I hate that phrase but it says so much...
