So Ready for Fall

A finish that I can share.  This is one of the projects I worked on at our friendship group, Material Girls, retreat at Pismo.  I quilted it and bound it today at the local quilt store Thimble Towne's 6 to 6 sew day. Today I finished the top of another fall bed sized quilt - but won't show that until it's quilted.  But right now I have two good sized quilts pinned and ready to go.  Now I just need inspiration for the quilting design.

This week I also broke a bood vessel in my eye.  I was at the dentist getting my teeth cleaned and when the doc came into check my teeth out he blew air at a tooth and it made me cough - and after he calmed down because my head bucked up and scared the ??? out of him, he said what happened to your eye.  I didn't understand what he meant until I got to the office and everyone kept asking me what was wrong with my eye.  I kind of freaked when I saw it and then went on line to see what it was or if I needed to call my regular doc.  It says it should clear up in about 10 days - so it should be cleared up before Kelly's wedding. And yes I have a picture of it but it kind of freaks people out.

Our retreat last weekend was great.  11 ladies sewing all day in the wonderful town of Pismo Beach.  We all got so much done.  Did I get any pictures of any finished projects?  No, but I did get this group shot with most of us in our aprons that our dear friend and Anna made us and she wasn't able to make it the retreat.  I do have one more picture but Sue would kill me if I put it on the internet.  Let's just say she has learned a lesson about leaving personal clothing items hanging around her sewing area and leaving for a while - you never know where it will be hanging when it comes back.  Good thing she has a wonderful sense of humor but I think Debbie's husband was a wee bit embarassed. 

Hope you all enjoy the rest of your weekend.
