Not Much
Much to-do about a lot of nothing in regard to the rain that was to overwhelm us. The air is very heavy.
The next phase of the tee-shirt quilt is underway. Putting a three inch border around the perimeter of the two individually pieced twelve inch block tops, helps to stabilize the raw edges. The secret is to cut the border fabric on the length of the fabric, the weft, as there is minimal stretch compared to the width of yardage. The rotary cutting of enough border material for what was needed for the two was quite a bit of arm, shoulder and hand pressure. After sewing said border onto one out of the two pieced tops and steam pressing . . . did it for me. The studio is dark.
I did order the Mountain Mist Quilt Batting. It is an old time favorite and not giving a huge amount of loft. $29.00 with no shipping, it should and could be here by the 30th or the first of July. Yup . . . it is getting real.
The studio is just about as dark as the skies are. The weather map has all sorts of blurbs indicating rain that might fall.
An economic wake-up call has hit the ole beloved cowboy. Dennis needed a belt for his wranglers. Fleet/Farm look out. The choice was slim to none. Off course the only brand they carry is Red Wing. The belt was $64.00 and some odd cents. Mission accomplished. It could have been worse. He didn’t need new wranglers. I had several pair washed and tucked away for the day he was weary of pants with an elastic waist. Too funny.
With that I will take my leave. ♥
