A bit of this, a bit of that!

My day was a little filled with bits of this and that today. First; oil change and tries rotated on my vehicle. Then off to knitting class, which I was behind on my homework. I felt bad, but, it happened! So, will be working to get my sweater finished on memory of the directions from the instructor. But, I can email her for updates, which is very nice of her. OK, moving on... side trip to an antique/primitive decor store, which I found a few goodies! 2-100% American Flags, which I brought home and immediately coffee stained. Though, I want it a little darker, so I need to find some Rit Dye. (That's harder than I thought because not very many stores carry it anymore!) I also bought an old wooden crate at the antique place, that I will be hanging on my bathroom wall and using it as a shelf. Stopped for a small pizza which I brought home for dinner, then off to my quilt guild meeting. After all that, I really enjoyed my cup of hot tea on the patio when I got home!

Make the best of the day you are given!

It has been raining for several days now, and I love that because it gives me time in my sewing room. So, another quilt is in the works!! This one is a scrappy one. I am trying to use SOME of my strips! I know this will not even make a dent in them, but it will be a start!

The flowers in my patio garden are beginning to bloom. I am hoping that the new flowers bring in some hummingbirds. I have been 'impatiently' waiting on them since we moved here. I will wait, and continue to keep the feeders fresh.

Bedtime here, so goodnight all.
