Getting there

Thursday, July 25, 2019

Getting there may be half the fun but the other half certainly is not getting ready.

Pat and I did some running around this morning and then did some prep work for selling House Concert tickets at the festival on Texada. Late this morning, Pat got groceries while I went off to the fabric shop and my sewing session. After sewing I did some printing at Staples before I came home.

I’ve had supper and now I need to start packing. I’m taking all of my finished quilt tops to Texada; I have more room to sandwich them over there and I’d be taking them to quilt anyway so they may as well all live there until I get to them. I was able to find backings in my stash for all but two of them and I picked up fabrics on sale for those two. I’ll be taking a few other projects along with me, and I look forward to afternoons in the hammock and doing some reading. I’ll spend the better part of two weeks on Texada but I may be back and forth a time or two.

I want to get the grass and boulevard (mostly weeds) cut before the evening is over so I’d better get at it.
