Yep, that's right. I am saying today has been wonderful!!!!!!!
I got 2/3rds of my apartment cleaned up. I managed to get in a little quilting but also managed to find more UFO's. Where are they all coming from?
I took off one of the borders Dan's quilt because of the two small holes in it and replaced it with a strip that didn't have any holes. The more I look at these holes I think they must have been made by a staple. I'll have to watch when I get fabric to make sure they don't staple the "tag" to the fabric any more. So I fixed that side and was going to work on the fourth and final side. Wouldn't you know it? THAT side also has "staple" holes! What the .....? So now I have to go and replace that side also.
As I near the end of doing this, I have to think on how I'm going to put on a label. I have four smallish circles with writing on them that I might use in the corners. I still need to figure out what to say in the label. I don't normally do labels. After that it will be the sleeve. I'm not sure I have enough of the backing fabric to match it (which is what I like to do). I'll check that out this week.
I feel wonderful though because I had a surprise phone call from one of my internet friends. It was a wonderful chat and I can't wait for more opportunities to chat again.
Of course another thing that made it a wonderful day was the fact that it is a holiday. I do have to go back to work tomorrow though and I'm sure that the 4 day workweek will seem like 6. It's still a great way to start my week and I hope you all have a safe and wonderful holiday.
