Three day weekend!

I am so looking forward to a three day weekend. No shows with the band so I am looking at staying home to get some stuff done. I want to get some quilting done on the pinwheel quilt

Spend some time working on tote bags

get a start on some baby quilts. I pulled out the pink and green hand dyed strips that my friend cut for me from a bunch of FQs when I went to visit her back in February. I pulled a floral print, which there are several yards, to go with the pink and green strips. I am going to keep it simple and start by making 16 patch blocks.  Those brighter green strips won't be used with that floral print.  

I have a lot more hand dyed strips to turn into quilts.

I also plan on trying to get the back yard mowed. When I was watering the flowers last evening, I noticed there were some weeds that needed pulled. I need to get to those before they get out of hand! I think I have come up with enough projects to keep me busy for three days. LOL!! I spent some of my evening reading the new issue of Bake From Scratch which I borrowed from the library.

Here are a few more pictures of the deck pour. The intern took these as the sun was coming up. The hose laying on the rebar in the second picture is called a dragon line. At the end of the hose where the concrete comes out, there are a couple guys that hold on to the hose. As the concrete gets placed, they shorten the dragon line by removing sections.

Have a wonderful and safe 4th of July.
