Sun

The sun shining amid huge snowflakes is a great site.  The flakes are outlasting the sun.

With the clocks springing ahead, I was up at 6:30.  The coffee pot was turned on and the aroma did little to to snap me into attention.  I must say the taste of the rich coffee helped.

One load of laundry . . . done and folded.

Dennis was on board for an oven meal.  Albacore white tuna, peas and pasta.  It made a large enough batch that one container for two found its way into the freezer.  About five fifteen this afternoon there will be supper on the table with cranberries as well.

Hot-PressNew-ToolAll is going well in the studio.  I must say for such a small tool, it does great.  Feeding a strong half inch of fabric into it, a sweet quarter inch comes out the other end.  A steam press right behind as the tool is pulled along will make for a great looking addition to the t-shirt quilt blocks.  At this point I am thinking of sewing the bright orange boarder 1.5 inches from the edge allowing for 1/4 seam when joining the blocks.  Time will tell. 

Right now the body is telling me that it has had enough of bending over the ironing board.  I do have enough strips for five of the 30 quilt blocks.  Realizing a successful solution to brightening up drab t-shirts has made my day. 

A bit of reading will wind down this afternoon and as well as myself.  Sometimes quitting when everything is going well is the secret for further enjoyment and the task not becoming a drudge.

Have a happy Monday everyone.
