Cleaning

Hi friends!
Yesterday i had about 15 minutes to sew and i started quilting on the white on the two table runner's.
I finished the white on one and started the other when i had to stop to go to Q-Bees.
Hubby worked out side so i cleaned carpets except when i went to get him some special cleaner.
He sprayed it all with bleach before he used his pressure washer.
It looked a whole lot better when he got this side of the  half done. While i was gone he cleaned the under side of the porch and the wall to the corner.
 He quit right before i got home at 7: 30
Have a great weekend

Turkey Table Runners

Hi friends!
This is the second table runner that i am making for my daughter in law.
All sewed down! This time i am not sewing the 14 inch squares on until i finish doing all the Turkey!
Hopefully i can get this done and sandwiched this weekend. If i do i will mail it to Amy next week, maybe toward the last of the week,. And send Jessie a massage so she will know i finished her's to.
That's what i have planned any way.
I got some snow flakes to sew on to the wreath for Margaret so i could finish that to!
Big plans!
Have a good one

Tractors!

Hi friends!
I don't like the stitch i used to make the steering wheel and brake!
But it was all i could find right off.
It's crooked!
I looked for something to make the smoke stack but don't have any silver . Settled on light blue.
I haven't sewed it down yet  . I will be looking !
I have tubs of fabric i haven't gone through yet.
We ran to Rome this morning to get hubby a new toy. Since we got plastic siding he needed some thing to clean it.
He used a coupon and a cash  gift card and got it for half price.
He is putting it together right now. Most likely he will wait until next week to start.
Have a great weekend

We had a quit week end , though about going to the kids family reunion but Hubby got up with his back all out of shape, he smelled of Salonpas all day.. Though he would go to see Dr. Jeff today but he woke up pain free this morning.
He hates to go to the DR!

Jessica's Table Topper

Hi friends!
Remember last Friday i thought this was to light, well i cut some more.
I like this much better.
I took out the real light ones!
I just pinned them on for now and went to work on the other end.
The one on the other end will be just the same as this .
I started sewing them together but noticed it was getting late and had to stop.
Dishes have to be washed!!!

Jessica's Table runner

Hi friends!!
I have been working on Jessica's Table topper for Thanksgiving.
I added on the fourteens inch pieces for my Turkey and started cutting feathers.
I cut my finger cutting these out so stopped right there.
I haven't pinned them down because they may be a little to light!
Maybe i will make up my mind and get some work done on it by Monday.
Have a good weekend
