Sometime today I’ll probably tip over into the three hundred thousandseys. I know that is really pure bean-counting but there you go. Sometimes watching the beans pile up and knowing the exact number is what it takes to keep you going piling them up.
Got a brochure yesterday for Quilt=Art=Quilt yesterday and pondered awhile last night what quilt(s) I might have to enter there. Generally the time frame isn’t right for me to enter there or sometimes wrong for showing. The quilts are there quite awhile which is good for visitors but sometimes not for the quilts. Anyway I will ponder that some more and think about entering. I’ve never had a quilt accepted there.
Also received the SAQA quarterly. Very slim, too slick for my taste and too hot to spend anytime with it. It did serve to remind me to send off the extra bits they want to exhibit along side the seasonal quilts in Houston. I don’t much like those things but whatcha gonna do? They particularly asked for pieces of fabric and quilting samples so people can TOUCH something. Ahem. I don’t think that’s to be encouraged but again, not my decision.
I did manage to iron a few rows of stuff last night and I’m hoping it will be cooler tonight. I felt bad for the poor wrung out cats – they were looking pretty limp. Oh wait – so was I!
I’ll see if I can pull together an envelope full of “work in progress” stuff for SAQA and figure out where it goes to and then buckle down to ironing tonight. If I could get the thing sewn together as a piece tonight and start the other-way sewing tomorrow that would be wonderful!
