Everybody's Free

DW and Bernie are both free of quilts. Well, actually, they do have something on them, but nothing I'm actually quilting. DW has to have Dianes quilt removed and Bernie has to have Evelyn's loaded. 

But if all goes well, today I'm working on Foster to complete Arcadia Avenue. I only have the black work to go on the sides and bottom border. We've already moved some things around the house and are hoping to hang the "Quilt" sign Jim's cousin Blair made for us. 

Nothing else planned today. I've given up asking Jim what his plans are because he never really knows much. I guess men are like that. Brenda asks Joe the same thing every morning and she hardly ever gets an affirmative answer either.

After Arcadia is done, I have to plan out the quilting on Charlotte's quilt. I'm going to grid it out before getting it on the long arm. I'll have to bind Arcadia at some point and as long as I'm binding, I'll bind the twirly quilt sitting in my bag waiting for me to do such a thing. 

Here's happiness...

What's going on here?

When I have DW in constant mode at 50% it's a constant sound. He behaves very well when I do this and so listening to him is an afterthought since I keep my hand on the quilt at all times to feel any kind of issues that may crop up. I put on my headphones, crank up the tunes, and just quilt away. I completed a rather large quilt yesterday in under four hours doing this...

Putting in an Edge to Edge design

Thank you Susan Smith for introducing me to this very versatile motif and it's now one of my go-to favs. It's cold today for August. We may not even hit 70 degrees. Isn't that weird?
