Casino & Quilts

This morning, I was up and wanting to play my games for a bit. Instead, I went for a walk and made it around the neighborhood 5 times. Patrick wanted to go to the casino early, so we left about 10:15 am. I had a message to Martha to meet us at IGA. Then Colleen said that Jan would be there to. 

We arrived at about 10:55 am, and both of them just arrived as well. Jan took 2 of the kits for quilts, while Martha took 2 as well. Then we headed to the casino to play. Neither one of us were really "excited" about going. Arriving around 11:15 am, we played till 2 pm. By that time, we were done with playing the slots. I won the mega again on the machine. Which by the time we were tired of playing, we had $1,200 coming home with us. Weird how we have been winning lately. I'm so used to us playing and losing money that this is getting interesting. We figure we are over $4k ahead this year. It's nice to have the money to play. Not that we need it, since we don't do much to spend our money in the first place. 

Came home and I fixed stroganoff. I froze what was left, since Patrick doesn't eat it. He wanted a burger, so I got it ready to cook.  I asked if he wanted soup or the burger and he said he wasn't ready yet. Then said, "Let me know when you want to eat." I told him I wanted to eat now, since mine was done. He came in the kitchen, and I handed him the bag with the burger. He looked at me and said, "I thought you would fix it for me." SERIOUSLY, wait till my food is hot and then make me cook his burger. NOPE! He ended up cooking his own. I was fine with that. 

When we got home, 2 quilts and a box of fabric were at the door. I didn't realize I got flower fabric for batting. OOPS. 

It will just have to be for a female's quilt. Or we may sale it at the garage sale to get our money back. It will be up to the group. 


I was trying for something different on the backs of the quilts. I like this pattern. 


I ended up labeling 8 quilts. This one is for next month. The good news is that I have 3 quilts that will work great for Saturday. Panels are coming in. I will pick up 2 of the anniversary quilts from Jo on Monday. 

I don't know if sewing labels on quilts count for being Happy Stitching/Happy Quilting!
