True Blue is in the home stretch! With lovely pink binding.
And I'm in a mad dash to finish because shortly, this entire room will need to be cleared out to make way for a long overdue make-over. I've been putting it off for years now, not wanting to uproot and unplug the HUB of my existence. I know fellow stitchers can relate.
But the time has come at long last.
Time to say, fare-thee-well to the last of the 'Desert Rose' colored carpeting, so popular decades ago. It's seen better days. In fact, I thought I'd seen the last of it when we moved from our house in California in 1994 (where it had been installed), only to see it again here, wall-to-wall, up stairs, down hallways and in every room. I have nothing against pink in my home environment; just like it better as an essay. Not the whole story.
So, yes. There is much to do! And it occurs to me that I'll need to minimize my regular schedule to concentrate on finishing this project ASAP. That means our lovely little shops, PatternBee, Vintage Stitch Shop, and Winky (the girls shop), will all be closed after July 5th.
IMPORTANT NOTE: If you have any items in your shopping cart and/or intend to purchase something within this time frame, please do so now, so that we can accommodate your needs. Shops will re-open after the 15th.
Thank you for your patience and understanding. If you should have any questions or concerns about your order, please don't hesitate to contact me, I'll be able to access email on my portable laptop to provide any assistance you may need.
Will TRY and get back here to update our progress if possible. And maybe share some photos of my finished 'True Blue' summer quilt.
Absolutely...I can relate...I have such empathy for the older crowd who have never updated anything in their homes for years and years now that I am in their number. LOL! So good for you! It will be a wonderful new thing to enjoy once it is completed and it'll be good for another twenty.
The quilt is marvelous...hope that we'll get to see the final result come July 15. Happy 4th of July to you and your family!
