A Good Day At The Casino

This morning, Patrick had an appointment with physical therapy. I tagged along so we could leave right after. I stayed with mom while he was gone for an hour. 

I showed mom the mistake in the quilt top, and she sewed it up. Then gave it to me for me to put the border on. 

I didn't get a photo but will when I get the border on it. One more top done. I have 2 quilt tops to add the border and finish the one on my floor. It feels good to have 3 quilts right there. But one is for the museum, so not so much. At least that's 2 more quilts. Mom started on another one with 9-patches. She's going to put a print square the size of the 9-patches, to get done. That will go fast. That one is in reds. She wants to do another in blues. If she does that, it will be 2 more quilt tops. I'm happy with that. 

Tomorrow is my judging day at the fair. I will take my sewing machine and cut squares for everyone to work on and get another top or 2 done. I hope they work on them. It will be a wait and see thing. If they do, we will be sitting pretty. I was pinning the blocks together when Patrick came in. 

We then headed to the Lucky Eagle casino, which we do. Since the fair is next week, we may not make it to the casino on Wednesday as I am working the afternoon. But at least we had fun today. We started out with $200 and ended up coming home with a LOT more than that. We won a couple $700. Then we won more as we played more. This time we were smart and came home with a lot more money than we had. Makes up for the losses we had the last couple weeks. 

Came home and Patrick took a nap. I played my games. Worked on some exercises and now ready to call it a night. At least at moms I could be Happy Quilting/Happy Stitching!
