Gypsy Sections 1 & 2

Thursday was sewing day with BQB. We are starting on the assembly of the quilt top. We managed to get Sections 1 & 2 together.

Now the sad part. We won't be able to work on it for 3 weeks. This week we will be leaving on Wednesday to vend at a Quilt Show in Vancouver, WA. When we return, the following week we will be at a retreat (where I teach). The week after that we can only work on it for a few hours in the AM and then we have our monthly Paws to Sew gals over. The week after that we  go to Odessa, Wa. for a Quilt Show that we vend at. Oh well, enjoy the journey, I guess.

Other than that I've been staying busy this week working on inventory and quilting the raffle quilt for our retreat.

On another note. I pulled out the Ranchero and had her out for a drive on Friday. We are going to be taking her around and getting estimates for painting and upholstery work. First we had to take her in and find out why the generator light was staying on. We had the generator and voltage regulator tested and they came back good. Well the voltage regulator lied. It was bad. I will get it back probably by Tuesday (Monday I'm out at the LQS all day).

That all for now folks!

Gypsy Wife Progress

Haven't done much this week.

I've been working on inventory for a quilt show that I will be vending at in about a week and a half.

Thursday my BQB and I worked on the Gypsy Wife Blocks.

Once again, mine are on the left and BQB's are on the right. I have finished with my blocks and at our next get together I will be starting on the assembly of the top. YAY!!!!!!!!! This project has been sooooo much fun.

Hopefully this week I can get a couple of quilts done for clients. I also need to quilt the raffle quilt for the retreat in mid April. No pressure, right?

Well I just took a short break to post this. Now I have to get back to work.

Gypsy Wife Report

This week I haven't gotten much accomplished.
I did go get taxes done on Friday. Such a relief, and we get money back! Yay!!!!
This has been a run around week for me with DH. That's why no progress in the sewing room.

Thursday was the only sewing day for me. BQB came over early and we went for our walk. Then it was home and go down and work on our Gypsy Wife blocks. We only had until about noon to  work on them because it was also our Paws to Sew Group meeting day.

Here is what we got done (mine on left, hers on right).

We figure we need at least 2 more times to sew on filler blocks and then we will be ready to start putting the sections together. I can't wait!

That's it for now. Hopefully I will have more to report next time.

Til later,
