Mom's Visit And My Stitching

Today Patrick was golfing again. That's a good thing. I slept a little longer. Then I had to get up and get ready for mom to show up at 10 am. I got my exercises and eye stuff done. I didn't get a chance to brush my teeth before she came so had to wait till after. 

Mom arrived and we looked over the quilts that needed binding put on. We decided to give another one to Cindy. It was bad. I almost did it, but I couldn't. I will drop it off with her on Friday. We then pulled some fabric for another kit. I got some fabric for another kit, but they need strips. I will put Nancy and mom on cutting the strips. Afterwards, I made grilled cheese sandwiches for lunch, since she didn't need to leave till about 1 pm. Patrick came home around 11 am. He went to take a nap, and I entertained mom till she let. 

After mom left, I played a little bit with my games. Then I put the tablet away and while listening to my audiobook, I stitched. 

I was really happy with how much I was able to get done today. I worked on the brown area, where I had stopped yesterday. Then worked my way up the steps. I am now working in the grey-blue area on the top. There is a lot of beadwork for this piece, but I'm actually looking forward to it. I want to roll it but need to get more done on the bottom right. 

I should have gone downstairs to work on the quilt on the floor. I need to get those done as well. I will try and time it better tomorrow. I will work on the quilt in the morning and try to work on the stitching in the afternoon. That way I can do them both. My interest right now is on this piece. I seriously need to work on the quilt tops. If I can have a few here to go to quilters when they are done with one, it will be handy for me. And I will definitely be Happy Quilting/Happy Stitching!
