Sneak Peek

I've finished--sort of. I still need to add the binding and I have another idea too, but here it is so far:

I wanted to get a better photo for you, but just as I climbed up the step ladder, framed the quilt, waited for the auto focus, and pushed the button, the "exhaused battery" message popped up. I signaled back "exhaused quilter" and dismounted--I'll have to find more batteries later, but for the life of me, I cannot remember where I put the last package I bought. Did I use it already? Who knows? ARGH!

Anyway, my idea: I think I want to add a wide eyelet ruffle around the sides and bottom edge. There are two reasons behind that idea: (1) I'd like to make the quilt fall a little longer, because we have one of those extra fat mattresses, and (2) I think the eyelet would look cool and romantic! So, I'll get up in the morning and head out to JoAnn's to see what I can find.

Remember how a couple weeks ago, I came home from work on a Friday night and had so much energy, I got all my house cleaning done that night? Yeah, that didn't happen tonight. So I still have the house to clean this weekend.

Then there's a quilt show too. And the monthly antique fair. And dipping a TON of pretzel rods in white chocolate and sprinkles for Valentine's Day. And dinner out with my kids on Sunday night to celebrate their birthdays.

Boy, it's going to be a busy weekend! I have a feeling that not everything I want to do will get done, and I've worn myself out already just thinking about it. I suppose I'd better head to bed and get some rest. What do you have planned?
