Happy Friday

After being up more than 24 hours straight, I slept last night -- well at least until 3AM when I started worrying about pulling stuff for our meeting today with a new tax guy so I got up and started searching through my files. This is just a preliminary meeting so I've got work ahead of me still once he tells me what all he needs. Keith's former BIL has done our taxes for 20 years so I'm not exactly excited about having to go to someone new.

While I was up yesterday, I did manage to get a few things done including a haircut and some shopping. My MQResources postcards were mailed out along with a HeartStrings quilt. I got a binding on Ann's wallhanging and just need to hand stitch it down and I worked more on piecing the scraps into a border for the K-quilt. I love how it looks but my pile of scraps is dwindling fast so I may not have enough in which case I will just stop where I am.

I've had a lot of great suggestions but as I said -- I don't have other yardage options from stash AND I'm not going to purchase anything. This is a quick, stash quilt for donation. I did find just enough of the purple from one of the blocks that I'm looking at for a narrow inner border assuming I can stretch the scraps far enough.

I'm going to work on bindings this morning and then walk downtown for lunch with Keith and the meeting with the tax guy and we even have dinner plans tonight with another couple -- hope you all have a great day.

Gosh Mary, how do you get so much done on so little sleep??? I would be a walking/falling down zombie. :-)
I love all of your free hand quilting. You've inspired me to do more on my own quilts.
