WOW-WEDNESDAY more ABC'S

I'm sorry I haven't had the chance to get my OMG on the Quilt Table this Busy May for Me Month. 

I have made progress on the many ABC LETTERS  I need to start playing with my Scrabble quilt at Retreat soon. 

I shared a few R's on QuiltCam last night before heading off to watch a Baseball game here in Walla Walla.

They Won!!

It's almost 'Sweets' game time. 

My daughter and her MIL are both hosting guys from the team.

Monday was a Big day for Traveling to honor our parents.  

Long Drives make me Hurt, but I just plan a 'Rest day' after.

This happened...

Sonia brought her ♡ Quilt so I could get a picture of her with it.

Lucky to also see and visit with these girls from our Younger days in Moses Lake 2nd Ward. There were 7 of us. Missing a few.

I visited with my across the street Neighbors too, (no picture).

On the way out of town Paul said, "Let's go see your Brother. " 

It took a bit to find the right place. 

Got a picture with my only Brother, the oldest of our Family.
He has a big Birthday in June.

We asked him how old he'll be, lol.

He said 60. Made me laugh, because I am 61. So he can't be 60. 

He's 16 years older than me.

Then I asked if we could drive by Palouse Falls. I have not been there that I can remember. 

The water was very muddy coming over, but can you see the Rainbow??

Who knows how long we will be able to get this close?  News says people want to close it because of  the accidental deaths recently.

It makes me sad.

I'm  happy to stay on this side of the Falls and see the Beauty of it all.

I can endure the ride better with my neck pillow. So I will travel and see all I can while I can.

So much more to share in the coming days.

I am 'getting ambivalent feelings' again with our 1st Grandson Graduation. 

So many feelings!!!

Design Wall Monday - ABC's

I got my Wish!!

Spelling Bee Saturday's Letter was Zz.

Z- is for Zipper, Zoo, Zoom, Zowie, Zone,

 Zed & Zora

Zed is what Australia calls the last letter in the Alphabet,  fyi.
ZIP, ZAM, ZOWIE & SWOOSH is from
The Super 6 Cartoon.

It's the last of the ABC'S for this SAL.

I had to see them on my Design Wall.

There is 10 weeks left to make the punctuation & a couple picture blocks.

I  made the Sailboat to fill in the space between  Ff & Gg .

A Grab Bag, Gray Alphabitties,  and the pattern for Color Cuts by Moda.

Friday - Housekeeping

After reading Quilt Shop Gal's Blog HERE  (it's well worth reading)

I have added a new TAB at the top of my Blog.

Some days you just have to do a Good Deed.

I broke the cardinal rule of Quilter's and did some alterations and hemmed some pants.

That meant I had to dust off my SERGER.

I have many spools to change the Color of Thread.

I'm glad I know how to do that easily.

I delivered the suit I altered on Tuesday. 

While I was down in the Quilt Zone this week, I stitched the Upper case Letters X &Y

Spelling Bee Saturday

 

I'm ready for whatever Letter or Picture Lori Holt shares tomorrow.

I haven't shared the pictures of all my goodies from Quilt Market.

I will do that another day.

I recently picked up my 125th Anniversary Bernina Golden Foot at STASH.

It came with a spool of "GOLD" Aurifil Thread

It fits on both of my Bernina's

The bright light doesn't show it well on the Artista.

"Betsy" and the D9P Variation are calling my name today.

WOW-WEDNESDAY What I should be Working On. ..

Today is the Birthday of my Sister!!

This was last year on her Birthday.

I will miss going with her this 

Memorial Day weekend to Moses Lake. 

I have so many more pictures to share from Quilt Market.
I'm still recovering from all the travel.

Quilt Guild was Monday in Tri-Cities and yesterday I made another trip up to
deliver the Surprise  "Hearts for A Friend" Quilt.

It was a True Surprise for her.
I didn't get the 1st look picture, but I will get her with it on Monday at the Cemetery.
She has a 'Hug Quilt" from me now.
I'm so happy she liked it.
