Where Does My Time Go? The Devil Dog Ate It!

I have no idea.  I have been asking that all week.

I should be so far ahead.  At least I have my Fiber Group piece done.  Well, mostly done. I need to figure out how to out a backing on it.  I want to find some of those wool army blankets to back these small art quilts with.  Carol, what do you use?

I have a meeting at 4, and the dogs get dinner at 5.  We get dinner after that!  It will all get done, maybe I can squeeze some quilting in there too.

Tomorrow I get my hairs done, as they say here in Cajun-Land.  Then lunch with Carrie to deliver the 3 baby quilts, Teal Twins Myles and Luke and the Low Volume Baby.

 this is part of one off my quilts from 2005.  I used a heavy weight fusible, for whatever reason.  But I did.  It is finished to the top stage.  It is one of the UFOs I need to quilt and get out of that pile.  The quilt was in one of the magazines I subscribed to at the time.  McCalls, Quilter, something.  I will have to research that when I finish it.

Now I just need to find the time!

I thought you would enjoy this.  I took a photo of McGee yesterday while I was testing out my rechargeable batteries that were not recharging.

DEVIL DOG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


He must have been mid-bark and the flash caught the reflective coating on the back of his eyes!

He looks like one of those evil clowns!  With green glowing light bulbs for eyes!

Out, Out Damn Lizards! Finally Finished

Vidalia LA (Not famous for the onions)

You will be pleased to know I am finished quilting the lizards on Dan's Quilt.  I made a concerted effort for the last three days to work on picking out the three rows of bad lizards.  I spent all day today re-quilting the three rows.

Then all of a sudden I noticed half of another row midway in the quilt that I had started to unpick and only got part of the way.  The reason I didn't notice it right off is because I started undoing it from the underneath.  Now why did I do that?

So I finished undoing about 1/2 of the row on one side and part of a lizard on the other side.  And I made quick work of re-quilting the row for the finish!

I inspected the remaining rows.  When I was satisfied that it would be workable, I actually took the damn quilt off the frame!  Yes!

And it felt good!

Cemetary at Mt. Locust Inn dates from 1812

I was going to replace it with my mystery quilt but the back needs to be squared up and I don't have enough space.  I have to wait until I go to The Red Stick to lay it out on the tables unfettered.

Meanwhile I will choose something quick to put on there.  Like maybe the second dino quilt.  Or a cow.  Or maybe the chicken quilt.  Whatever it is, you can bet your sweet bippy that it will be a simple pattern that will be quick to work!  LOL.

glen:  and easier to take out if I have to!  For sure!
