It's the last week of June so you know what that means. It's time for a featherweight spa day. You know the routine. So, get the oil and gear grease/motor lube out and let's just do it. For those with a lot of machines, I guess take a day and do them. I am only doing one at this point because I'm up in the woods using only one FW, the one that loves it up here at the lake.
Have you had a good summer so far? It's been quiet here but we are expecting company in a couple of weeks. You know what that means. We're busy trying to spruce things up. I brought up a new to me display case for showing off a few quilts and some of my special FWs. I'm loving the look. And, we've hung new screen doors because the old ones were pretty worn out and sagging. We re-built the dock down at the water and that is very nice. I will do my usual wash all the windows this next week. It's time for that.
My flowers have been pretty this year. I especially like this iris. It's had a huge bloom of regal colors. I do wish the blooms would stay longer.
As far as sewing goes, I'm hand quilting Little Brown Bird this summer. It might take me longer than this summer because there is just a ton of stitching and I'm slow. But, I'll get as much done as I can. This picture is just the very beginning of the border. I'm into the 2nd row of appliued blocks at this point.
The FW Retreat/Workshop for August 2022 is in the final planning stages at this point. We're going to have a grand time, I'm sure. I'm going to fly down for those so won't be bringing much to work on other than helping everyone finish up their case covers and maybe I'll try to put together a scrappy quilt during that time.
So, if you have questions, be sure to send them along. If you just want to know what's going on class schedule wise, head on over to the schedule tab and check things out. There won't be much happening other than retreats until we return in the fall. Have a lovely day. Now, go get that FWs spa day over and done with.
