The End of Another Week

For some reason this week has been a long one for me. I went right into two long days at work after being gone for a long weekend. Then Bam....day off and I need to catch up on laundry, shopping, and cleaning. That doesn't leave much time for sewing now does it. So today after a few errands I plan to sew. Still am working on the Easy Street Mystery. All blocks have been sewn and now I am putting rows together.


Last weekend I was in Spokane for my sisters retirement party. We had such a nice time. My niece organized it and it was perfect. Good food , friends from her work , and friends from her quilt world, and family. Three of the four daughters who grew up next to us were able to come. Our moms had been through nurses training together, so we have been life-long friends.  I haven't seen them in 9 years. It was such a delight to be able to see them.
