There were a lot of busy operate things to produce yesterday morning, as well as hence I didn't arrive into the sewing room until mid-afternoon. You powerfulness retrieve I've been trying to declutter inward bits as well as pieces. Every other week, I pass xv minutes deleting quondam photos, as well as quondam papers from grad school, as well as other quondam forgotten materials off my computer's difficult drive. Then on the off weeks from that, I pass xv minutes getting rid of junk accumulated over virtually thirty years. Yesterday I took 4 boxes of "really practiced stuff" to Goodwill as well as threw out to a greater extent than or less other 2 grocery sacks of dried upwardly cosmetics, dried upwardly smash polish, as well as that kind of thing. If only it were that piece of cake to delete pounds from my body.
But amongst all of that, I needed me to a greater extent than or less slow-stitching, as well as hence I started as well as finished the footling barn quilt on Block #6 for the Appalachian Memories quilt.
While I was doing that, the kitties were hanging out on the catio. They yet haven't climbed the ladder or spent much fourth dimension on their catwalk. One of you lot had a practiced regard for using quondam quilts to entice them. Today I intend I'll curtain an older quilt over the catwalk, as well as run into if I tin larn them to role it.
Sadie defers to Smitty virtually his throne. She'll induce got the shelves when he's out there.
He rules the corner roost, but she's happy to sit down in that place when she's out past times herself.
Coyote Man was out yesterday as well as laid to a greater extent than or less traps. We're hopeful things volition motion along a footling to a greater extent than speedily forthwith that in that place are actual traps. Fingers crossed. We're inward waiting manner only now.
When I got dorsum from my trip into town, I sewed the binding onto the footling redwork quilt.
After that, I got started on my Rainbow Scrap Challenge blocks. I'm starting amongst the Charm Stars. I had a lot of assistance for this business office of my sewing day. Sadie was telling the jokes on this day.

When I went upstairs, I regard I was finished sewing for the day, but I ended upwardly hand-sewing the binding on the redwork quilt, as well as forthwith it is a complete too.
Here's how it looks from the back.
Looks similar I got the label a footling crooked, but oh well. This is going to hang on the wall, as well as hence it doesn't actually matter.
