but these two disjointed things are what i spent the better half of last week doing.
last sunday we had our guild sew day, and i got a good start on the norweigan woods christmas quilt for caliquiltco. i finished the top up, and when i brought it in to the shop on friday, tayva asked me if i would be able to have it quilted by the following week for our holiday themed live show.
give me a deadline, i'll make it happen.
so that's where i'll be this afternoon!
jumping over to the baby shower side of things, this was a first (as many things are in 2020)
since we're in lockdown and my bff is in texas, i couldn't exactly throw her a baby shower like i did four year ago for jackson.
when i wasn't sewing this week, i was cutting stencils and painting onesies for this music themed ensemble (plus a little disney magic) but more on those later.
i ordered special cookies from my cousin (fanciful sweets), put together some games in a facebook group and scheduled a zoom hangout for yesterday afternoon. everything went off without a hitch, despite not being able to hang out and chat and snack with each other. played a riveting game of "the price is right" and just chatted.
you don't realize how long it has been since you last saw someone until these big events start coming around. i last saw erika in texas because of being there for quiltcon, and it is so crazy how much time has flown but not at the same time. i so badly wish i could have been there with her, but you know... covid and stuff.
i can't wait to meet the little princess coming their way, and YIKES i still have a baby quilt to figure out! once i wrap up this christmas tree quilt, it will be back to babyland for me to complete my 2 october baby quilts as well as one pattern test i agreed to do AND lorelai's tweenager quilt... which has to be done before she turns in to a real life teenager. AHHHH.
happy monday!
