Yesterday the temps got into the low 50's. It was so nice even though there was a breeze blowing. This morning it was above freezing when I got up. Kind of sad when you get excited about something so simple. Most of the snow is now gone, but there is alittle bit left and some ice from all melting. Today its only suppose to get to 40, but hey its better than the bitter cold temps we had for most of January. Its going to be above freezing all week and they think we may hit 60 on Tuesday. Woohoo!!
Yesterday I went to a tack sale sponsored by the MI Quarter Horse Assoc. It was held at the MSU Pavillion in conjunction with a horse show. The place was packed with people. They had a lot of vendors as well. Most were just people selling sme of their old stuff or they make show clothes to sell. I found a few things I liked, but couldn't spend the money since I'm not sure if I'm going to show this year or not. My goal is to show, but I'm not sure if I will get there.
I also went to Everlasting Stitches in Holt to look for fabric for a Bargello class I'm taking in a few weeks. They had an unexpected bus load of ladies stop, so they were packed when I got there. Pam has some very nice fabrics right now. I had a great time just looking around and finding all kinds of fabric that I would love to have. Pam helped me picked out the fabrics for my Bargello. She then gave me 15% off of my total. I thought that was great. She is working on putting a bus trip to Chicago together for the International Quilt Show in April.
Last night I got some more trimming and sewing done on my Double Delight. I only have 7 more blocks of step 5 to sew together. Of course I have to go back and finish step 4 before I can start putting them together. I'm getting more excited about finishing it now. I'm hoping to get some more done today. Of course I'm neglecting all my household chores, but I just don't care. I want to get this quilt done because I want to see the final outcome.
