Temps are cooler but we don't have the fall color seen in our northern states. But the drop in temps are very welcome.
I have my first totally finished quilt (almost). It is quilted and I am in the process of putting on the binding. Oct 24th is my Ex's 80th birthday and it will be his present. We are having as many of our family here as we can and at last count looks like 25, 4 children, 6 of 11 grandchildren, and 5 of 7 greatgrandchildren. Will be lots of fun, lots of good food, and lots and lots of photos.
I'm still trying to get all my things organized. It is a slow process because this house doesn't have any storage area other than a basic closet in each bedroom. There are lots of places where neat closets could have been added but weren't. I have 2 (need another) wooden storage cubes with 15 compartments (designed for shoe storage) filled with fat quarters, by color. Really makes selecting fabric for projects nice. I will make a curtain to cover to keep the ends from being damaged by exposure to light. Also, have a metal shelving unit to assemble and add for storage of other items (larger pieces of fabric, or some I have that aren't as big as a fat quarter), again adding a matching curtain. Saw a program/pattern a long time ago where they attached one side of velcro to the shelving and the other to the curtain. Makes removal easy to access the shelves, and then replace when finished.
