Had my list and was ready to go.
First it was off to the fair to drop off the "Veterans Memorial Museum QOV" tags that were to go on the 2 quilts I entered. Kathy grabbed me before I left and asked if I could help a gal with judging knitting. I told her I had no clue what she needed to do but I would be interested in "scribbing" for her. We worked on the first 6 items and then the gal came that was supposed to help her. I was there an hour (a lot longer than I planned on being there). Gave mom as hug and left after an hour. Mom was judging the quilts.
I was then off to Olympia to get my blood drawn and get my B-12 shot. I ended up giving 9 viles of blood today!! I couldn't believe it!
Then it was back home. I stopped at Safeway for milk and some lunch. Got home and realized I didn't stop and let Daisy out like I told mom I would. So, I got back in the car and went to let her out. Then I came back home - again not really what I planned. If I would have remembered to stop - that would have been great....but NOPE this brain didn't think it was important enough to remember.
I then turned the CD audio book on and listened while I worked on my beading.....WELL, that's another story! I put a good 2 rows in, and one of the beads broke as I was changing threads. UGH! Then I noticed I was off on my rows. I think I skipped a couple rows.
I was taking out and putting the beads in the right piles.
4 Rows later....and I still have 2 more rows to go. That would get me to the broken bead. Might as well keep going since I had to take out 4 or more rows. What a pain in the rear!
I will be going to Sharon's tomorrow, so I will work it out then. She's going to show me how to fix the broken beads. I have another one that's a ways up there. I hope we can figure it out.
When mom got home she called me to tell me the panel quilt that I made with her stars got "best of class" award. I think that's cool! I'm happy with that. It's going to have the QOV sign on it. Then I asked how my embroidery did and she said she forgot to go and look. I was a little surprised that there wasn't much this year compared to last year.
I really can't say I was Happy Stitching because I was taking everything out. But I can say, I wish I was Happy Quilting/Happy Stitching!!
This is a blog that shows my quilting, Brazilian embroidery, cross stitch, beading and more. It's a daily blog that shows how busy I can be with too many projects and how lazy I can get at times. Even boring at times. It was originally for my children who where miles away. Now, it's just a blog.
