Milan Quilt Builders have started the raffle quilt for next year. I have almost half of the blocks finished [by members of the group]. I gave in and left them take some of them home to work on. When they come back to me all we have to do is lay them out and sew them into a quilt. And put the last of the sashing on and the borders. I want to run off with this on. I really love the colors and the pattern that I designed on my quilt wizard. I have pictures of Kare's three blocks that she took home to do. They are at the top of the page. I have to take pictures of the ones that I have here at home. I have been laid off. It was to be for two weeks but I got a call this morning that I will be off untill Nov. 3. What am I going to do? I guess I better get the sewing maching going. Its not like I don't have anything to work on. My Aunt Rita and I will be doing the road trip shop hop on Friday. Butch is going along for the ride. It is only 6 shops this time. The last one we went on was 12 shops[I think]. We did that one over two days. Shop hops are alot of fun, but they can be quite costly. I will have to watch my spending this time. While I am off I want to get my retreat challenge quilt top finished and work on my snowman flannel quilt top. I know that we will have 3 of the littles on the weekends and that cuts into my sewing time. Nick would rather be here than anywhere else. He is getting so smart. Brittany was here on Sunday. She is so busy that we don't see her much anymore. Getting us ready for next year when she will be away for collage. We will miss her.
