I am finishing up a fluffy (polyester batting) lap quilt for my husband. He requested the fluffiness... it's a simple pattern and I finally used up all of the fly-tying fabric I bought probably over 15 years ago! I also have a small silk wallhanging that I want to mark and machine quilt with feathers. Have a picnic on Saturday afternoon, but other than that, I'm free!

Lori,
That sounds delightful. Pictures please. Have a fun picnic.

In between doing errands, celebrating my friend's birthday and chores, that is. Oh wonderful...pictures please. Sounds like a great weekend.

I'll be at work all three days, at the crack of dawn. Someone's got to be there and it's me. I did get to sew some today, just some mindless sewing which was nice to do. Your knight quilt is a work of art!!! I'll be thinking of you all this weekend, hoping that you are finding some time to enjoy some sewing.

Kathy, Thanks so much! Sorry you have to work all three days...bummer.

I want to get it finished in time for our guild show in Oct. It's a generous queen size at 94x94, so quite a bit of quilting! But we're getting there... Please post photos along the way. I seldom tackle a quilt that big. Have fun with it.

I'm piecing and quilting a lap quilt for my nephew. I found a gorgeous robot panel, and have bought coordinating fabrics for the outside. His birthday is next weekend, so it is pedal down this weekend

... Except, doggy school in 40 minutes

, then Mum's to fix her computer

, then father's day shopping

, then helping my son with his school assignment

, then to a friends for dinne

r. Tomorrow, I have to go watch 2 football finals as well...

So when I'm not doing all the above, I will be sewing (oh and housework).

Phew! What a weekend! So busy!

I have a very large customer quilt on the frame that will take all weekend plus to do. It's called Primitive Garden and it's a wool BOM from Primitive Gatherings from a few years ago. It's so lovely!! Here's a link:

In between quilting, I will take my daughter to her riding lesson and perhaps get a bit of piecing of my own done! I'll probably fire up the grill too... if we don't get rained out on Monday! LOL

Wow, that's a yummy quilt. Hope you get to that bit of piecing done. Sounds like a lovely weekend.
