Ah, Sunday! No set plans. My dad coming over for coffee. Other than that, the day is mine! Okay, who stole my day? I was busy all day but didn't get a whole lot accomplished. I need to order a new canopy for our gazebo and for my dad's. I must have searched for about an hour for a good website then muddled through to figure out which size and style I needed. Nothing was exact. Then I called Joe and he said we still had the old ripped one at the storage unit. He brought it home-dirty and disgusting. I'll take it outside tomorrow to see if I can find the style number. Hopefully that will help. It did waste most of my afternoon. I did get my feathered star quilt pinned. Finally!

Stars on my island
I'm so glad I have a large kitchen island! The perfect place to pin my quilts.
Now I need to quilt it-hopefully by year end. It's relatively small but I do want to quilt it heavily. I'm going to try to hand quilt at least an hour every evening I'm home. The key word is "try". So I started tonight.
Hand quilting the central feathered wreath.
It just occurred to me. I've got a lot of "feathers" going on here! Maybe I'll incorporate that in the name of the quilt!
Got to get back to my quilting!
Happy Stitching!
