Finally, a sewing day!! Yay!!! Yesterday we went to Bonnie’s house for a last (sniff sniff) sewing day. Bonnie has been my friend for 18 years, and we have done a lot of sewing together. I am glad she blogs and has email, so we can still “virtually sew” together.
We got there a little late in the morning since we “had to” drop by Emma’s and Lincraft for some supplies… that’s what happens when everything is packed up! Once we got there we did get lots done though. I got to play on Bonnie’s Brother sewing machine and finished this quilt top:
I started sewing a quilt for the art lady, a quick stack and whack with Kaffe Fasset fabric. I got 8 blocks done:
Oh, and today Ellie came home!!!!! Here she is:
Ellie has been at Christie’s house for the past year, and my parents brought her back for me… if I have enough space, she will go in the suitcase 🙂
We have found tenants for our house, so we need to be out of this house soon… I’m still hoping I can finish the two quilts, but we will see. At least I had one lovely day of sewing with Bonnie yesterday 🙂
Sounds like you had the best time! I felt a little sad too, but you will be able to virtually sew now!! I'm glad that you got Ellie back. Hopefully, she will fit in your suitcase.
Well Done!!!! Another finish for finishing month!
And it turned out gorgeous.
The one for the art lady will be yummy too.
I know she will love it.

Sure was a good day Joy. Will miss these. We sure will stay in contact but unfortunately won't be the same…..sob, sob! Are you reaaaaallly sure you need Elna? You have 2 terrific machines!!
How sweet to have a sewing day with your sweet sewing pal before you leave for a long while.
Yes the world has become smaller for us with these pcs, blogs and emails even phone online. Lovely quilt.
Enjoyed the pic too!!

That quilt top is gorgeous! I would love to do this. My grandmother made quilts. They were not all beautiful designs like yours, they were made to put on beds and keep you warm, and she worked with scraps. But I have several and I love them. They are so old and soft and comfy. I detest blankets. Give me an old soft quilt anyday.
