Catchup - Sept 18th-24th

 Sept 18th

Hey, my friend Jo of NZ just showed me that my tracking app totals all the walks I've done since I started tracking plus annual totals! WOW!!! Will try to graph this for myself.

2015 (1 month or so) 23.51 km Started up with Prairie Pathfinders and Edna. 

2016 (most in Aug) 757.23 km 

2017 (spread out fairly evenly) 621.29 km 

2018 (mostly Jan-June) 906.81 km 

2019 (inactive May, Nov, Dec) 433.34 At this time Prairie Pathfinders folded too. 

2020 (not much action - Covid started) 390.4 km 

Jan-Sept 2021 (Jan-May was good - summer heat put a damper on my walking) 337.6 km

Lovely ZOOM meeting with a small group of Aurora Quilters, while quilting the top 2/3s of quilt blocks for the MPQ Indigenous project. Hopefully next week I'll finish off this quilt and then switch to my own Canada quilt top. I love ZOOM on my laptop mucho better than on the tablet!  

But am totally annoyed as some young lady is being totally harassing trying a few times to get my name and number, even though I said you called who do you want! Third call asked for Melissa and when I said not at this number she was adamant she's right etc etc etc! I hung up and didn't answer the 4th from a different Manitoba number. Obviously bored and harassing! 🤔

Sept 19th

Well I finished the quilting on my Indigenous project so treating myself to a yummy Santa Lucia special pizza and ceasar. Ohhhh I walked over in case I want a second beverage!

Sept 20th

Fall is in full swing now! Guess I can take that AC unit out and store it for next year!

I remember my family talking about this and very sad for those not lucky enough to have gotten the vaccine in time!

Sept 21st

Ooopsie I forgot the show and license info!

If any MANITOBA RESIDENTS are interested in purchasing a $2 ticket on this Manitoba Prairie Quilters raffle quilt to be drawn at the April Quilt Reflections, please message me! It is very beautiful. Thank you!

WOW!!!

Sept 22nd

Talk about a gorgeous autumn day, lovely ladies and wonderful shopping together! I picked up Edna, then Sylvia and off to our booked Keystone Quilts shopping hour (nice to see Lori Suss too of Night Owl Quilting), then across the city for coffee at McDs before stopping at Marshall's and lastly Bed Bath and Beyond for Sylvia. Then dropped off Edna before heading to Walmart on Regent for last minute stuff and riblets supper at Applebee's - just like I remembered and had told Sylvia about! Then took her home and now resting with my feet up!  

I just can't decide on one! They are all beautiful!!!

YEAH, YEAH, YEAH!!!!! This past week I finished off the quilting and yesterday the binding on my MPQ Indigenous I Spy quilt. These fabrics are from my nature stash and that's not even half of them!

Tomorrow I'm going over to Sylvia's and we'll wash our two quilts, package them up and after some sisterly sewing time together, I'll drop them off at Kathy's. It was a fun project to put together, but glad mine's finally finished in time!

I'm now going to work on sashing together my Canada 52 blocks in 52 weeks quilt top! Another YEAH!!!

Sept 23rd

Had a lovely sewing day with Sylvia, washed our fabric purchases and our Indigenous quilts too (will drop them off to Kathy next week) and then cut out the sashing ready for sewing my 52 blocks 52 weeks quilt top together! Finally, it's only been wrapped around a pool noodle most of this 2021 year! Sylvia worked on another of her apartment door hanger! Love it! Thank you for lunch too!
