Did you find time to play for a few minutes?
I started my day off kissing my husband good bye as he headed off to work. I said, " Enjoy today! It is the first day of May for Me! Find time to play - even if it is just for a few minutes. You will be happier!" ---- It sounded really corny when I said it. He just kissed me and smiled...
I found time to play for a few minutes with the little blue and green squares. I was going to take them to the River. They were sitting next to my sewing machine and I just started sewing them together.

I even found a few minutes at the end of my day to quilt a bit. I'll finish it tomorrow.

Enjoying everyday in May --- One day at a time!

I enjoyed a day of sewing with my SIL. I made bias binding while she sewed it to the botholders she is making. With the two of us working together , it went very fast. We are sewing again today.
I dug out a BOM I ordered two years ago. I am determined to start it and hopefully finish it for my little girl who is going into a big bed (from her cot)

See you tomorrow.
PS - today is the 2nd here. Yesterday I drove for an hour to drop off a quilt to be quilted - that was my play for the day. It was a wonderful drive and looking around the quilt studio was lots of fun too.
I basted my "California Sun" quilt. It is quite big, so that took a long time..but it is done now, and ready to quilt!
I didn't get to play in my sewing room yesterday but did get to play in the garden which is almost as good for me. :)
Looks like fun! I spent some time cutting up batiks and making some blocks.
I began my idea for a new pillow!! I love how your blocks didn't match up, we all have to let go a little sometime!!
Love the blue and green combination....so pretty : )
I am going to spray baste a couple baby quilts for machine quilting.
Gave up sewing years ago, but when i see something this beautiful the itch to stitch returns. Followed from Rock and Share.
