Like so many other places, our weather has transitioned
overnight from wet and coolish to blistering bright, humid and hot…prime time
in this part of the world to stay indoors and work on quilts and quilt-related
projects.
I’ve finally reached a pause point in my Guild Committee work
to be able to once again turn my mind to other projects. In the meantime, my brain-breaks consisted
of making potholders for my gift basket stash and knitting dishcloths from the
endless cone of cotton yarn I purchased at the library thrift store years ago.
The top two potholders were finished using Diane's technique
which she posted here. The bottom one
has a binding remnant leftover from another project and is ready for the
finishing hand work.
A Tuesday quilting friend is clearing out her sewing area as
she prepares to become a full-time RV-er.
She kindly gifted me with these batik scraps and remnants.
This is the last picture I was able to capture of the babies
before they left the nest for good. Time
to do some heavy duty cleanup on the front porch. I need to get Rent-A-(Grand)Kid to help with
the ladder work.

Yup....THAT season is here!!However, your heat is far more blistering than mine, thankfully! Quilting is always IN season, isn't it??? Why is it that some of those thrift store "finds" seem to last a long time???? Your gift stash is growing nicely!
Awww You make my heart sing with the potholders using my link...Nothing like a potholder...such awesome therapy...
