Don't have a lot to write about. We have finally finished getting the tiles down in the kitchen. Fred is ordering the wood for the rest of the floors today, so by this time next month we should be looking pretty spiffy. I guess that means its time to start the slip cover for the sofa. It may be time to take a couple of half days off from work. Especially if Chris comes for Labor Day week-end. It will be wonderful to see him, but I won't be spending the week-end sewing. I MUST get some time in tonight - before I have withdrawal.
Will also figure out how to post pictures.

Well I have gotten a digital camera and figured out hot to post to other on-line sources, so now maybe this will be next.
I spent most of the week-end dealing with the new kitchen floor. It looks nice and will be worth it once its finished, whcih probably is another couple of weeks away. We could have it finished enough for hardwoods to be installed by tomorrow if we tried, so the main pressure is off. Of course, they are at least a week from installing. We haven't ordered yet, and it will need to acclimate for several days before it can be installed. We need to get the kitchen pulled back together so we have room for everything else that will need to be moved. LOTS of fun there.
As a result of all the floor stuff, I haven't done much quilting lately. Hopefully by Wed. I can get some done at least between the time I get home and before Fred gets home. Don't know how much work we will plan on doing in the evening. Depends in part on how hot it gets.
Sent in my request for Memorial Hall concerts for this year. We'll see how things work out this year. I don't know whether she will actually assign concerts or not.

I finished a qquilt last night I think will be named "Many Firsts". It was my first:
art quilt
wavy bordered quilt
wavy crosshatch quilt
And there are probably more firsts I can't think of right now. I started it last Friday in Ellen Guerrant's Oh-oh Confettio's class at the North Carolina Quilt Symposium. Hopefully I will figure out how to post a picture in here at some point.
Symposium was great. The mountains were very peaceful and quilters are such nice folks. I really stretched my comfort zone this year, which is what taking classes is all about, isn't it? And next year sounds like it will b tons of fun.
Signing off for now.
