I go from 3 days into vacation to 3 days LEFT of vacation. I'm not complaining. The end of the vacation was pretty good. Things are settling down but I still have a lot of work to do.
I did finish the test pattern (mailed it off and it was received) so then I turned my eye to something else. This WAS a finished project that I got tired of the center so I ripped it out. Yes, I actually did rip out some of it which left a little hole in the top so now I need to do something to put in the center. It is all quilted (Free Motion Quilted) but not a very good job since I'm not good at FMQ. I was thinking of just doing various sized circles and put in the middle. I found these fabrics to see how they would work. What do you think? The yellow fabric is the same fabric that I used on the border. It's more goldish (the right side shows a more true color of it). What do you think?
I took pity on him and let him back inside but not right away. I was too busy enjoying this view.
I'll go back to watching the view outside for a bit. It's too nice of a day to sit inside (and I don't have any more applique prepared to stitch). :)
Have a safe Memorial Day weekend everybody.

That's the most I've gotten to thinking of it since I got distracted. What distracted me? Charlie Brown. Here's Charlie Brown. I went to visit him and his parents but somehow I don't think he
is appreciating the outdoors as much as I was.
