Happy 36th Birthday to Ben!

Well, my middle kiddo is on his last mid-30's birthday. I can't believe it! The time goes so darn quick!

As well as having a customer come yesterday and getting two tops set onto Bernie and DW, I worked on this piece...

Jim is working in the kitchen this morning (making a cake and Salsa) and I've gotten some admin stuff done from last Saturday's pick-the-donated-quilt project. I had to fiddle with Jim's phone to get some of the pics transferred and mess with his Cloud backup.

I started to work on our memory book from Alaska, hence the delving into Jims phone, and then got side tracked so that is still in the planning phases.

Meanwhile, I'm heading to the studio. I didn't clean it last night like I usually do on Friday afternoons so I should probably start there. Or not. I want to work some more on the Tilda blocks since I obligated myself to attend a retreat with the Hale group in October. If the blocks are done I can set them on the design wall and get them put together easier.

I also have a few other things to work on. This Tula Butterfly for one...

This one is going to take a while! Or not?
This is a queen-sized quilt meaning it will probably be donated. Do I want to take the time to custom quilt it or just do an E2E with meandering butterflies all over? I'm torn. I made this specifically to do some custom in it, but I have to watch my time. I'm not getting any younger and that's going to be a lot of work.

While I was digging this one out I found three others in the tote that frankly, aren't going to make the cut. They were even too ugly to donate so they are now in the trash. Yep, I threw away three quilt tops. 

Well, that day isn't getting any younger (nor is Ben now) so off I go.
