Catch up time

Saturday was a great day in the pool. Wasn't too hot, so just right for the tractor pull in Apache Jct. Sun was out and 30 sunscreen did the trick. Was there from about 11:30-3. Could tell I had enough sun-had a headache. I'm sure you got bored watching all the tractor pictures....but, it was fun. Came home and put my feet up for a while. Went to the Woodshop Burger fry at the resort. I'd had a buffalo burger at the tractor pull. Not too excited about them.. Pretty dry! Took a nap in the chair before I went to bed - too much fresh air! Sunday I was able to sew again. Finished putting blocks of 4 together. Newspaper and a few groceries. Taking veggies to the block party at 3:30. Was nice to see the people who live along this street. Nice street this year. Not much traffic. Had entertainment-couple 3 guys play guitar and banjo and sing together. Also some karaoke later. One guy does a meal Willie Nelson. Off to Fred & Marie's resort. She's in the choir there and they had their last concert. They had 4 different directors that night. All former music teachers. They all had their own style. The one guy thats stepping down used to be Ann Curry's music teacher! Was a good little concert. Even had a small Dixie band during the middle of the concert. Ended with a Disney montage of songs. The choir was having a get together afterwards, so I headed on home.
Monday was pool time again. Back to sewing. Started putting the big 4 patch blocks together. I can't show you, since Renee & Craig have to wait until October to get it. Then I'll post pics on FB. Made a haircolor/cut appointment with Cost Cutters. The beauty school I went to last year had over a 2 week wait. I wouldn't have made it that long. Color looks good-cut is just ok-had a hard time convincing to keep going shorter. Oh, well, in 4 weeks, I can do it again!
Tuesday by noon I had all the 4 patches together. The quilt top itself is done. Now I have 2 more rows of pieced borders/stars and then 2 more plain borders. All the 2" squares are sewn. The pieces are ready to be sewn into the 2 pieced borders. I'll get that done tomorrow. Maybe even one of the plain borders. Thursday Marla comes in the afternoon. I'll need to sweep up around here and get rid of some cat hair on the chairs!
