Happy Monday to you all! How was your weekend? Did you do anything fun or memorable?
For us, there was some kayaking and of course, lots of sewing (for me). I finished up the dresden from our scrap challenge in our MQG and made it into a pillow for our bed. It looks so sweet sitting on top of our QAYG (aka "monster quilt") quilt.
I also started working on a design for Angela for her June block in the busy bees bee.
Angela requested triangles and sent some kona and lots of katie jump rope. After sleeping on the idea last night, I have a good idea of where to take this from here. I'll let you know how it turns out!
Have a great week!

It's me again... I was going to post on the footstool post (for the 3rd time) but that might be a tad weird... I can't help myself... I cannot stop thinking about that fella.
You spoke of a trade once... a hami for a... footstool perhaps??????
