Sewing Saturday

I plan on spending the whole day, or at least most of it, sewing or prepping to sew.  Had a busy day yesterday with the grand kids and a friend of theirs.  We shopped at Joanns for stuff and Meijer's for a pizza for lunch and fruit for smoothies.  Then home for a day of fabric painting, sewing, baking and eating.  They slowed down in the afternoon, Emmie and Natalie had been up since 4:30 AM, they went into Geneva to be part of the group shown on NBC news for a program featuring Geneva Swedish Days.  Fifteen seconds of fame.  lOL

William  spent the afternoon learning to chain piece, he did a darn good job.  He workied on a packet of charms, next time he will sew the pairs into 4 patches, then we'll do sashings to put them into a quilt top.  I posted aphoto of his efforts at the sewing machine.

I should have some stitching time tomorrow too, George will be driving the votemobile in the Swedish days parade from 11am to 3 pm.  Today he is at a friends house helping him to replace some windows, there is a lot of rehab work to do on this house so I think he will be busy for the rest of the summer.  MOre sewing time for me.
