Catchup - July 5th-8th

July 5th

Finally I had a lovely visit with Michelle! She even selected some of my purged clothes, fed me some of her cheese rolls before going into the back and picking some rhubarb for me to share. Thank you for the lovely visit Michelle and Wally and for asking about my upcoming vacation. Wally was impressed on my booklet of plans!

Then home to more purging while clearing my sewing away, made a list of items to pack, booked my Park n Fly for Wednesday and the last of my dishes!!! Just need to do a last load of laundry and pack up Monday/Tuesday. 

Finally, I've either sorted by size and fabrics, trimmed to various sizes, triangle pieces sewn together and fabric pieces gathered for future HSTs. This under the bed tub is 31x14x6" and totally full, a good two years of collecting from friends. The bag on top has two books full of ideas and a Chevron pattern card along with packages of HSTs sewn, trimmed and sorted by colours for future projects. The smaller case is also full of various sewn HSTs but need trimming and sorting!

HMMMM maybe I've enough triangles, don't you think?????

July 8th

Well I'm getting closer to a new adventure or two or three!!!

Yesterday Edna treated me to the Tropical Storm dish at Pole Mono at Lakewood near Shoppers. 

Today I finished packing and swiffered floors while the towel laundry was on. Then got my cash and last minute items. Next is a quick wash of the floors, bathroom wipe down and finish off the few dishes from breakfasts past few days.

Today Pat came over for my keys and also told me about the AquaBus that we should check out in Vancouver, good idea, I downloaded the map etc and also saw there's one to Grouse Mtn and Capilano Bridge, maybe another option.

My friends have arrived in Canada this morning from Sydney, Australia and I can't wait to meet them tomorrow afternoon in Calgary!
