I was supposed to go to a quilt retreat this past week with some of the most amazing friends and quilters in the universe, but family stuff got in the way and I had to cancel at the last minute. I didn't let that stop me from sewing, though. I probably should have saved me leave and gone back to work for the week, but went ahead and took some "me" time....although I also cooked and did you know, Mom stuff. I had bought a kit back in January 2011 at a quilt show and it's been sitting there patiently waiting to be made. I thought it would be a good retreat project, so I had done the preliminary cutting. Since it was all cut out and ready I spent a good deal of time sewing it up. The pattern is called "Hopscotch" and it's from a book called "Six Halves Make a Whole". It's not quite done, still needs borders, but it will get there soon.
The lighting in my house is not the best so it didn't photograph well.
On another front...The OKC Thunder are in the NBA finals. Tonight was sad as they are now down a game, but I have faith they can come back....
As we say around here: THUNDER UP!!!
