I dyed a total of about 20 yards in addition to some odd (I don't like to waste dye) pieces this past week. 12 of the yards were for a friend and the above were left over and what I will add to my stash. The colors are great, although they look more washed out in the picture! I am going to dye more in the next couple of weeks and will post pictures of them as well.
On the quilting front, I have been working on a couple of the quilts that Diane left for me to quilt. I am so critical of myself and on first look, I wasn't pleased, but then when I looked at them a little closer I think it's okay. The same old nervousness comes when I am quilting for others, even a good friend like Diane. I get so anxious and tense and as a result, the process becomes much harder than it should be. The good thing about quilting these for her---the more I do them, the easier I anticipate it will become. In addition, she isn't critical at all and even though I may not be especially pleased, unless I just really mess up, she doesn't give me a "hard time".
I have a couple of quilts in the works. I just have to work it out more in my head so hopefully I will have something to share within a couple of days. Had a great Mommie's Day----with a delish brunch with the two children who live here and my grandbabies. It was fun---lots of laughter, joking, food and everyone was happy! A good day! The only one who was particularly unhappy was Coal who had to be left alone.
