t-shirt quilt and Octopus's garden progress, and a show

I made big progress on the t-shirt quilt. It is now 70% quilted!
I did get the octopus finished. The darker legs are more than one color; it is hard to tell in this photo.
Saturday afternoon my nephew's band had a 45 minute show to play at the Akron Blues and Jazz festival. The temp was in the low 60's and we had an easy load-in and out. The crowds moved around town to the different venues as there were many people playing at the same time.
Check out the clouds. Here is a view to the north then to the south. In the second picture to the south, on the left is the art museum. On the right is a parking deck then the main library.
We had a pared down merch table and didn't bother setting up the tent. We didn't sell much, but with many hands (Michael's girlfriend, my SIL, a roadie's girlfriend and me) it was an easy set up and tear down.

That was great progress on the quilt! Some people were probably unhappy it was so cool out and others excited to wear their sweatshirts. We had cool temps here too for the last 2 days of the fair and sunshine both days. That is a lot more pleasant than 90 and sunshine for me.
