February has arrived…

Quilting

Today was the monthly Sunflower quilters meeting. So nice to see all these gals and the wonderful things they do. A very active quilter project agenda was shared. This time of year neat and often challenging quilting projects. We also do charity quilts so today spent some time sewing labels to quilts. Many also helped pin some quilts for some machine quilting to be done. Show and tell is always wonderful. 

I have been working hard on my EnProvence  and finished the flimsy today. Another beautiful quilt. Now will have to go fabric backing shopping and also using up some extra blocks for the backing. Maybe hand quilt this one this summer.

Now that this is complete I can return to machine quilting my charity quilt for this year. Will cut some binding tomorrow for that quilt and for my daughters quilt which is just about ready for the scallops.

My sciatica is improving. I actually feel like doing more including some bush trimming, cleaning and returned to pickleball. I have continued my stretching several times a day and that seems to help.

Arizonia weather is just perfect. Warm sun that allows bike ride in morning to clubhouse (40’s) and later is in the 70’s. We did a 3.5 mile hike on Sweetwater Trail, but still have quite a distance to get to the saddle. 

Happy Quilting!
