To Do Tuesday #101
Hello Everyone! Hope all of you who are on the West Coast are surviving this Heat Wave. It has been following me around everywhere I go. I am currently in Vancouver, Washington and it is suppose to top out at 100F today. It will start cooling off here. Unfortunately, I will be heading home tomorrow to San Jose, where the heatwave is in its second wave. Beating the heat has been a challenge.
I will be linking up with Carol at Quilt Schmilt for To Do Tuesday. Come check it out.

We checked out the vendors as well as all the quilts on display. I took a class from Laura Heine called Teeny Tiny Elephant Collage (class sample above). Check out what Mary Elizabeth and I got done in class.

Hi Everyone! We are having a beautiful spring day here in San Jose. It is the high 70’s here and so pleasant with a blue sky. I am enjoying every minute of it. I visited my sister Dorothy in Modesto, California which can be very hot, but instead it was a beautiful day which we spent most of in her backyard. I loved the visit.

While I got caught up in all of my cross stitch Christmas projects, I finally sat down to work on my quilty projects. I made progress but not quite what I was expecting to finish. December has always been a flurry of activity where I finish up a bunch of stuff that has been hanging around.
Due to travel last year, that never happened. But this year, I have HIGH hopes to knock quite a few almost dones off the list before hitting the road again in January.

Hope everyone had a good holiday with friends and family. It is good to be home!
I went to Seattle to spend the holiday with my daughter so she wouldn’t be alone. We did a 5k Turkey Trot in the morning to get things rolling which caused me to be stiff as all heck the next couple of days. I am finally back to normal today.

It was nice to be home all week. I was able to clean up a (very) little in my sewing studio and start looking at upcoming projects. Of course, starting a new project requires that I finish something soon!
