DOTZ DONE

I can't believe I am done with this one already! 

 I have the supplies to mount it and will do so today. 

 I already have another Diamond Dotz project ordered!

Bill and I took advantage of the glorious weather yesterday for a lunch date!  It has been way too long since

 we've enjoyed a leisurely luncheon!

Yes, it was a wonderful time to enjoy each other's company!

Getting Drafted

I woke up at dawn-it was nice to see sunshine

 instead of a massive cloud covering!

I played around with some pattern drafting for two different kinds of summer tops for me-something comfy but a change from the tshirts I always wear.  I began sewing on one but had to quit to head to the neurologist.

After a good appointment and encouraging words from him, Bill and I went to Corky Bells to eat and celebrate;  he agrees with the rheumatologist and the new medicine I'm on-hoping it will cut the inflammation that is running rampant in my body!

After eating, we took a walk and enjoyed spotting their young 'gator in the river.  He was begging for food but it is illegal to feed them for obvious reasons!  This one is about 5' long.

The docks all along the river had egrets sitting atop the posts--it was fun to spot them!

Once home, Lena greeted me and we both enjoyed a good rest after our busy day! 

 Today, I hope to finish the top and start on te other one--we will see how my drafting numbers work out! lol

 

Lunch Out

I began yesterday fussing with the tension so the blue thread would stop breaking.  After fiddling for 15 minutes, it began to work beautifully.   (see a bit of ribbon and stars panto for the pattern design)

I did enough  quilting to take the quilt up and off the floor--now the cats can't make a nest there!

This is the view of the St. Johns River we had from our table at Corky Bells--one of the busiest restaurants around.

Yes, we had a great meal, a perfect view and the best company!
