Design wall Monday

I don’t have anything up on my design wall yet, but I do have a project ready to go.  I made some changes to the baby quilt I was planning on starting… after printing out the pattern from EQ and seeing just how tiny the pieces for my chosen border were, I decided life was too short.  LOL

So it got an overhaul, and more than the borders changed.  I’m not even positive I like this very much, so I’m going to use all solid fabrics instead of the lovely florals I had picked out for it.

My fabrics are starched and ready to be pressed and cut out.  On Friday, my quilt group is hosting an all day sew in, and this is project I’m going to pack up and take along to work on.  I’ll be testing out the trunk space of the new Miata right away!  I’m pretty sure I can fit my Bernina 630 in it.  Hoping anyway!

Don’t forget to head over to Judy’s and see what everyone else is up to this Design Wall Monday!

Yesterday I narrowed the legs on two new pairs of pants, and hemmed them… one pair left to do.  We are in another major heatwave here in Arkansas, nearly the end of the September and it’s 100 degrees and dry as can be out there, ugh!

I’m off to the chiropractor this morning, and then I think I’m going to go take a tour of St. Mary’s Fitness Center in town.  I’m very seriously considering taking on a personal trainer and seeing how much youth I can restore to my aging body.  Hahaha!  Actually my chiropractor says I must start lower body strengthening or he’ll never be able to keep my spine lined up, my bathroom scale says I must start losing weight or break my promise to Jim that I would never be fat… and my new car says there’s not room inside for anything but tiny people! 

20lbs would make my day, that shouldn’t be too hard to lose should it?  Uh huh…
