To Do Tuesday #65

Hi Everyone! Hope you are having a fantastic October so far this month. This week is PIQF here in Northern California. So excited to see everyone and check out the vendors this year. I also signed up for a few classes starting on Thursday. I decided to take class from two of our local quilters this year and am so excited to meet them. It should be fun!

Floss Friday #61

Happy Friday! It is a gorgeous Fall day here in San Jose. It is 90F and sunny. I had hoped to go for a hike today, but I am going to have to pass as it is way to hot for that. Instead I will end up going for a night walk when it cools off later. I am looking forward to it.

WIPGO Update

Let’s take a look how September went and what is on my plate for October.

Hi Everyone! I hope you had a great weekend last weekend. I had a very nice long weekend with my daughter and her boyfriend Jannes and have made plans for Christmas in Whistler, BC. Looking forward to it!

Floss Friday #56

Welcome to another edition of Floss Friday. Hard to believe it is already the last Friday of August and summer is coming to a close. Crazy to say the least. This is the first summer since 2020 that I didn’t travel. With all the travel with hockey, it was kind of nice to be home for an extended period with some day trips here and there.

Can you believe it is August already?! The summer is almost over already. The kids go back to school next week. I swear it gets earlier and earlier every year. Doesn’t seem to be much of a summer for them anymore. Very sad if you ask me.

Floss Friday #52

Can you believe July is almost over? Just a few more weeks and the kids are bacck in school. How crazy is that? This week has been pretty normal summer day here in San Jose, California. I hope everyone is enjoying their summer.

Starts & Finishes

I am pleased to have finished my last two projects that I planned to finish this July.

To Do Tuesday #52

Happy 4th of July! The heatwave in San Jose finally broke and we will be having a cool day of only 84 F here. It’s a relief after the 100 degree temperatures we had over the past week. I am not complaining because I know that we have a “dry” heat here compared to other parts of the country. At least when I step outside the house, I am not soaking wet immediately due to the humidity. I am truly grateful for that.

Welcome back to this week’s edition of To Do Tuesday hosted by Carol @ Quilt Schmilt.

Floss Friday #47

Whew! It’s been two weeks since I last checked in with everyone. A week of that was me off spending money in Reno on more quilting projects and supplies that I had not planned on buying! I went with my enabling buddies Mary Elizabeth, Toni, and Teri. We had a great time, shopped, ate, drank, and talked so much about everything under the sun. I am sure we solved all the world’s problems. LOL!

Obviously, I did take a project along and only actually worked on it the first night we were in Reno. I simply was too tired the other nights after being on my feet for hours. After getting home, I just sat in my chair and stared into space for a day or two. So not only did I not stitch much while on the road, I didn’t stitch much when I got back either. Despite all that I still managed to get stuff done. I have no idea how.

To Do Tuesday #50

Hello my friends! How time has flown since we last chatted. Last week was spent in Garderville and Reno, Nevada with my quilty friends Mary Elizabeth, Toni, and Teri. We had a great time shopping, eating, and just spending time together. We spent a day at the Reno Quilt Festival which was fun. The show was bigger than I expected and I spent way more money than planned. Saw lots of new vendors and some gorgeous quilts.
