I finished cutting the fabric for the Guild’s mystery quilt this morning. I took a trip to the “old” fabric shop and purchase a metre of four different fabrics. In the end, I used only one of the fabrics from yesterday and all but one of the fabrics I purchased today. I ran into a couple of quilters at the shop so had a bit of a visit with them. It seems that we will be moving our Guild’s base of operations from the church to the basement of the Legion; from what I understand they are giving us a much better deal and the church has significantly upped their rates.

I can’t believe that is all I accomplished this morning, aside from the usual scanning and shredding of documents. I caught up on my paperwork, although there wasn’t much, and helped Pat download a form for our medical insurance.

This afternoon I mowed what we lovingly call our lawn but in truth it is mainly weeds and ferns. I also cut the boulevard for what I hope will be the last time this year. Those yellow flowers (weeds) look much better in the Spring than they do in the Fall.

It was hot work outside today but I wanted to get it done as there are showers and/or rain in the forecast over the next few days. When I came inside I spent some time reading; I’m really enjoying this book.

I was mistaken as to how much Pat wanted to get over to Texada. I thought as soon as his parcel arrived we’d head out but it seems he wasn’t thinking the same thing. I’m not sure when we will go across – maybe after the weekend for a few days.

I think I have time to sort out some thread for my next quilting project before Pat calls me for supper. I’ll finish up the afghan tonight (for the second time).
