Well, getting ready for retreat has been put on hold, breakfast/Brunch out at Nautilus Diner in Crofton this morning before going to the bank to get vacation deed notarized. (Yipee!) This is the second deed, the dog chewed the first one, (long story).  


Followed by a 3 mile afternoon walk with the dog, and a 2.50 mile run on the treadmill.  It was cold and windy out, but we had a good pace which got my blood moving so not too bad at all.

 All of my mystery fabric is chosen and washed.  Just need to pre-cut.  Big bag fabric is washed and ready for pre-cutting.  Now just spending a quiet evening with the "Man" who cooked an outstanding chicken dinner in the crockpot, watching movies and Chopped all with a roaring fire in the fireplace.  How could I go down in the basement with all this going on?

The past couple weeks I have also been thinking about our guilds quilt show http://www.southerncomforters.org.  I am not entering a quilt this year, but I would like to put some crafts for sale in our Comforters Keepsake Store, and cleaning out my sewing room for things I no longer use for our Out of the Attic Store also at the quilt show.

Owl Sewing Kits
These little cuties are stitching up quick in the embroidery hoop, with small amounts of fabric, and they are about 5-6 inches tall.  Left & Right owls standing in the back row are finished.  The other 3 need stuffing, buttons, and whipped stitched opening closed. 

Tomorrow is a new day, and I should get some things done then.  I'm really looking forward to our Presidents Day Week-end Retreat.

Do you need any empty spools for these little cuties?

Good Morning Mary,

That would be great! I have about "3" empty spools! Ha, ha, I don't think that will help. Anything you have would be greatly appreciated. See you at guild on Wednesday. Sheila
