Better than a stick in the eye
I didn't get a whole lot quilted yesterday.  I was tired when I got home from work and a trip to the eye doctor to get my new lenses.  I still go to the doctor where I use to live so it takes a good 1 hour and 15 - 20 minutes to get there.  Driving tires me out.  I did stop and get gas on the way back - $3.69.9 a gallon!  Yikes!  Every place else it was $3.79.9.  Anyways, I did get started on this gray shirt and I say getting this little bit done is better than a stick in the eye! LOL!!
I have made some good progress on the reproduction sampler in just a couple days.  It is going fast and the border is fun to stitch. I do have to count carefully because the border is not exactly the same stitch count all the way around.  I have my chart on my easel and just mark the stitches off with a pink highlighter as I go. 
Here is where I was on Wednesday and where I am now.
I am looking forward to the weekend!  Temperatures for Saturday and Sunday are forecasted to be 66 and 65, but windy on Sunday. I need to do some cleaning up in the garage and work on that frame for that cross stitch piece I just finished so I will probably do that on Saturday and enjoy the warm weather.  Maybe I will even do a bit of yardwork.  Working on the Harley quilt and maybe the placemats for the woman I work with will also be on the list.  Have a great weekend!
I wonder if the ground has thawed yet here or in your area. It will be nice to get a little warmth this weekend. We are supposed to have high 60s Sat. but then back down to 40s Sunday. I hope to get out and look around too.
