I seem to be in a slump though not sewing-wise in particular. I made a batch of peanut butter cookies to serve to friends and burned one full cookie sheet so I ate them myself. Stupid. Slump One for the diet! Then I'm "too busy" to do my stretching exercises, so Slump Two for getting in shape!
BUT... I have been quilting though not as much as I would have liked. I have the bazaar quilt this week (actually I have to give it to the next person today) and I had planned to finish it all and have it ready to be bound tomorrow when the group gets together. I didn't manage to finish the last border so we'll have to bind it without it being completely quilted but I doubt that it will matter. We are about three weeks ahead of schedule which feels very good. Not too much quilting had to be done, almost completely stitch-in-the-ditch, and it is a cute quilt which I think will make a good showing. I don't know what Mrs. Furui has planned for the binding. Same color as the border or contrasting. I'll try to get one more picture when it is done and spread out but for now here is proof that I worked on the bazaar quilt!
It's Wednesday so I'm off to the kindergarten now!

Tanya, it's a very pretty quilt! I love scrap quilts and this one is a keeper.
lovely quilt with heart and star.Bye
You're way ahead of mine - it's still in the cupboard waiting for that elusive sandwiching fairy! Looking good :o)
That is a pretty quilt - lots of pretty colors. And you are hand quilting it? I think it is going to make good money at the bazaar.
The quilt is very pretty.You also look very pretty sitting there sewing!
Your post about the cultural differences and "support" gave me a good chuckle.
The bazaar quilt is looking great! Yes, we can vouch for you that you worked on it :)
The bazaar quilt is so scrappy and lovely. That is an interesting quilt hanging on the wall behind you. I can't remember seeing this one before ... can you take a full shot of it?
