Happy Canada Day!!!!!

Happy Canada Day Everyone.

 Time is flying and here we are July 1 , 2012.
This weekend I have been doing some organizing and cleaning in my sewing area; badly needed. I have been doing a little sewing but nothing major for a few months. I have rcvd both my roll roll cotton boll and my string quilt( still needs a name) back from my niece who did a wonderful quilting job on them and they are patiently waiting for me to get the binding on. Here they are before the quilting.

 When I eventually get the binding on I will post finished pictures.
 This spring has been very busy with my full-time job plus a part-time sec/treas position which has been very busy since April but will now slow down again until next April allowing me to get back to sewing.
I am looking forward to that but needed to clean-up and find things so I know where to start. One thing I found is a polar fleece sweater all cut out from probably 5 or 6 years ago so my cleaning partner (daughter) who helps me get rid of things I don't need challenged me to sew it today or give it to the salvation army so TA-DA I have a new sweater. And I discovered my serger does still work after having not been used for a very long time.
Better head back to my cutting table as I am trimming some scraps into usable pieces.
Hopefully it will not be another 5 months until I post again.
