Progress report for work done.....

In yesterday's post I had a long list of things that I wanted to get done.

As usual, other things happened too, so not everything on the list got completed.

So here's the progress on the list:

1. Flamingo -- coat number one has been applied, laid out the pattern pieces on the fabric for the body, wings, etc.

2. Put together the toucan -- his body is stuffed and his feet have been inserted and glued

3. Glue jewels on hobby horse -- KISA is working on this, its almost done

4. New Apricot bear -- his nose is on, I've started the many layers of paint on the eyes

5. Car Quilt -- got all of the brick wedges cut for the "track", ready to start sewing

6. Solar piece -- got all of the orange finished on one side of the piece, hope to get the rest done today

7. Cat Quilt -- about 2/3 of the binding is complete

Along with that I also laid out a dodo bird on the fabric, unraveled a sweater that had gotten too worn to be presentable (I'll be making hot pads and dish rags out of the yarn since its cotton), talked with a local real estate agent about doing "virtual tours" of houses she has for sale, worked on some future show applications (local Christmas/Holiday ones) and did 5 loads of laundry. Not a bad day's work.

Today we will be canning peaches, then I'll get back to the projects. Sorry folks, no pictures today as I had to spend some time dealing with some other office issues this morning.
