Cold and dreary

 It's going to rain all day, and the temp will drop all day. The hint of spring was nice while it lasted. 

How cute is this panel? It's called a Spoonful of Sugar. They also have charms of Mary Poppins for a zipper pull, so I got Baby Boone a couple. This I have the backing cut for (messed it up the first time). I'm not going to use batting, and won't quilt it. I'll put a hanging sleeve, so it can go in her room. 

I worked on this again last night.

 

It's coming along well, even if it's a printed chart that is not pattern keeper compatible. It's my evening project.

And of course, F*ck to the administration and their idiot supporters. 

The last warm day

 For a little while, anyway. It's going to be 80 today, then drop down over a few days til we're back in cold land. It is March, after all.

 Another thing I started a longish time ago. I think it was from Ricky Tims' Convergence Quilts. If I remember correctly, it started with 4 fat quarters. The top was done. I trimmed it, and made the quilt sandwich and lighly quilted it. It's 21" x 22". Now to decide where to hang this little beauty! I may call it Jersey Beauty. I have to think about it.

We got the patterned enlarged at the library, and I got the cross stitch started. The fabric is actually light blue. It had been over a year since I did any counted cross, and it took me a few minutes to get everything in place. That will be my TV watching piece.

And more than ever, F*ck the entire administration and their supporters.
 

Spring?

 It's 70 out! I'm sure it's just a tease, we have the rest of March to get thru.

I did 3 more tablecloths yesterday!

I love all the fabrics that Manda picked from my collection of large pieces. Each piece took 2 yards, so that's 12 yards used! We mailed them out this morning.

 

Yesterday was the first Enduro race of the year! Ed and Eddie have belonged to a club since Ed was in his 20's, and Eddie first started carrying times from area to area on a little bike. Now he's been racing for several years.

 After the race! Exhausted, filthy, and totally happy! 

And the daily F*ck to the war criminal and his band of thieves and pedophiles.

 

Warmish Sunday

 I had a comment from an anonymous person- they didn't have the courage to use their name- mad because I called the felon a war criminal. I imagine they are one of those who believe crafting should be separate from politics and world happenings. Which it never has been, and never will be. I guess they want to either live in a little bubble, or only read things praising the pedophile. Which this space is not, and never will be. 

My husband, father, father in law, and grandfather fought in wars to fight fascism. So I will never condone or revere war criminals, pedophiles, grifters, or mysogeny. If anyone can't deal with that, then this is not the blog for them to read. 

And on a more fun note, I spent time in the sewing room yesterday! Amanda requested tablecloths. I sent her pix of some of the big pieces of fabric I have, and she chose several. I made the first 3 yesterday.

 #4 is on the cutting table, and #5 and #6 are on the extra table waiting their turn.

 Counted cross stitch! It's a kit that I bought a year or so ago, and got the fabric all set up in the q snaps last night. I have to get the pattern enlarged to comfortably work on it. It's not real big, so shouldn't take long. 

Lunch today is at Longhorn Steak house. 

And, of course, F*ck the whole administration, and anyone who supports them. 

I did a thing!

 When I was on Facebook yesterday, there were a few articles about new Apple products, and one is a new MacBook called the Neo. So I went on Apple's site, and it's so cute!

 $699 for the one with the bigger storage! And it works just like my iPhone! So of course I ordered one. The yellow is too bright, so I ordered the pink. It'll be delivered in 2-3 weeks.

 Yesterday I cut this fabric to size for a tablecloth for Manda, I want to do the hemming today.

I just did another thing, I bought some stock. Steph was telling me about novo nordisk, who makes the GLP-1 Wegovy. Due to the war criminal's actions, the market is down, and it's now $38 per share, so I bought 15 shares. I'm not a big stock market investor. The first time the war criminal crashed the market, I bought 101 share of Royal Caribbean for $22 a share, and 101 shares of Carnival for about $15 a share. My less than 3K investment is not worth over 30K! I plan to leave my stock to my 4 grandchildren. Not a fortune, but a nice gift.

And F*ck the War Criminal, his whole administration, and anyone who supports them. 

Rainy Day

Rain is good, because it's melting the remaining snow. It makes us thing spring is close!

I did this fabric book, finished it yesterday. Decided I don't care to do the other two, so I started a bag for next years donations to the library's craft exchange. 

The scrap afghan, which is about half done, is on hold due to running out of scraps! It's #3 for this year. I gave one to Jacob and Molly for their new-to-them house, and the others are waiting for someone to come along and need/want one. 

My son in law Ed texted me a picture yesterday. I had made them a half dozen bowl cozies, and he took one to work and sent me the pic of his lunch bowl in it. I'm always happy to see my creations in use, and my kids and kids in law use them. 

F*ck the entire administration and anyone stupid enough to support them.
  

Yesterday was busy!

 I go in the sewing room when Lisa the cleaner is here, to stay out of her way. She does that room last, and I vacate it when she's ready. Ralph goes down to the basement and has been sorting and cleaning.

 I finished the limoncello fabric bowl cozies! These are for us. 

I also started putting together one of the fabric books that I found panels for. The first one is ABC's of Christmas, and I should finish it today. I'll do all 3 or 4, and put them away for future family babies. I've given Boone two, a spring one and a Christmas one. 

We met Julianna and family at Cinder Bar for her birthday dinner, and had a wonderful time. When we came out it was really misty, which later turned to fog! 

It cleared up by this morning, which was good since I had a grocery order delivered by Walmart. So much better than having to trek to a store, any store.

And more than ever, F*ck the felon, ice, the entire cabinet, the feeb director, and anyone dumb enough to support any of them. Especially the congress, some of whom now think the Constitution doesn't apply anymore.
