Catchup - March 26th-31st

March 26th

I forgot to post this yesterday!!!  I was going to have supper with Sylvia and promptly called Norma to join us!  I'm bad as it's been a long time since my welcome back visit!  We had a nice chat at the St Vital food court together!  Maybe our next visit won't be as long a wait? 

Then I took Sylvia to the puzzle exchange in the NE corner parking lot.  She exchanged 3 of her puzzles for different ones, then we bought 3 other ones at reduced prices but slightly more than thrift store prices, but being puzzle enthusiasts I'm sure all pieces are there whereas thrift finds are iffy.  We'll probably do a 500 piece one after the MPQ Quilt Show before stopping till fall!

Then over to Edna's for her homemade apple crisp (lastof Florence's apples) and ice cream!!!

Thank you ladies!

Ohhh what a nice surprise after running errands today!  I was dropping off cotton thread to Jacqui and she invited me up to see their new apartment home.  I just LOVE it!  ❤️

Then I thought I'd stop into The Bay for the liquidation sale for some needed undies!  Well talk about very disappointing - 15% reduction store wide - ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!!!!  The prices were ridiculous to begin with, so I turned around and went home.  I guess the liquidators don't want to sell the stock now, they must have plans for it otherwise!

OMGG!!! Guess the forecast is not lying!!! Safe travels to all!!!

Taken at 4:45 pm

Taken 5:08 pm - can't see the block across the river, maybe a block away.

Taken 5:27pm - increasing in intensity.

I finished round #4 of Halyna GailWeaver Dema pineapple doily on Wednesday, but didn’t bury the ends until tonight. I'll continue with this Daisy size 20 Cream but also with my lovely Lizbeth size 20 in #179, I like the tatting better but not sure about the colour. I had to pin down this round to see it flat.

WOW!!! Wish I saw this year's ago!!!

WOW, I love this idea!  Now to find them

Mar 30th

Oooohhhhh I think I may have to scrap this Daisy cotton. Obviously my tatting is tight and when I'm easing up chains or rings this thread snaps. It's either too old or my tension too tight!!!

I finished the round but very discouraged.

Family fun!!! First off my sister Marlene has, in my mind, miraculously flown to Cuba with family and is having a wonderful time! AWESOME!!!

Then today after an achy exercise session, I went over to Sylvia's and helped her finish off her landscape wall hangings (for MPQ quilt show boutique) and some shopping!  

Once home I did mid-day exercises, relaxed on heat before tackled burying all the ends of my Row 5 of Halyna GailWeaver Dema Pineapple Doily. That Daisy cotton thread is trying my patience!!!
