Binding progress, deer pillow, deer, and zinnias
The corners are mitered and the quilt is trimmed. I have tonight and tomorrow to get the hand stitching done then sew on a label. I am taking a vacation day tomorrow so getting it done won't be an issue. I will have it done to gift on Saturday. The band has a show on Saturday so I am taking vacation so I have some time for myself. Saturday will be a long day.
Here is the progress on the deer pillow top - picture of where I was and where I am now. I have eight more of those motifs to stitch and then I can turn the corner. Wanda, yes this is 14 count.
Speaking of deer, when I opened the garage door to take the trash bin out to the curb there were two fawn in the front yard! I couldn't get my phone out fast enough to take a picture before they scurried off to the back. I walked toward the back and saw the bigger of the two in the neighbor's backyard which I am guessing is a male. When they were near each other in the front the was a very big difference in their size.
I walked back to the garage and stuck my head around to look in the back and saw this. The smaller fawn was sticking close to Momma so I am guessing this is a female.
A moment later Momma was looking to see what was going on
I did get a picture of my zinnias last night. How did that pink one get in this group?
Love the deer pictures. So cute! What cross stitch pattern are you working on?
ReplyDeleteThat's good that you can take the Fridays off with vacation days. 4 day work weeks are really nice. I hope the band has a good showing on Saturday.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteYou’ve made good progress with this quilt… almost complete. I planted some zinnias, too, but only one came up. No flower yet so no idea what color. They usually last well in the heat.
