I have not fallen off the planet, although the amount of posting I’ve done recently may lead you to believe that. Nor have I been caught up with non-stop quilting. It’s been yard work. We’ve been trying to clear the jungle that is in our backyard. It’s also been reading. I’ve re-reading all of the main books to the Outlander series by Diana Gabaldon in preparation to reading Written In My Own Hearts Blood. Looking at my new position on the waitlist at the library it looks like it will be about 4 weeks before I get my hands on a copy of the book in any form.
During my absence, I did get the binding on the placemats and coasters. I also moved the bag of shirts from the living room into my sewing room. Finally last night I pulled the shirts I need for the June and July Alphabet BOM.
There were a few quick trips to quilt shops but I only brought home two black batts which were on sale at 50% off for two quilts which need to be completed by the end of the year. I go back to work tomorrow, the yard work has taken on a new urgency (we’ve hired a truck to haul off the trimmings Saturday morning) and I still haven’t cleared off my cutting table, so there’s no telling when you’ll hear from me again.

Yard work a necessary evil. It is so fun to anticipate the next book in a beloved series. Hope your turn at the new book comes quickly.
Don’t get lost in the weeds. Always nice to keep busy at something. Sandi
