Quilting Time



Monday we went over to West Vancouver for a visit with my aunt and uncle, Mom's sister and had a really nice time. Ken met Floss at a florist's convention when she was working for Brown Bros, uncle Joe's business.
We shopped for food at the new WalMart here in South Surrey and hear it is the largest in Canada. We got our winter fleece sheets and they are heavenly. I also got a new iron and it works like a charm - even steams well. No wonder I notice the difference, mine was 29 years old.
More rain, so here I am finishing Lexi's quilt. I used the bigger tables up in the clubhouse and used my new iron to finish it. I still learning about quilting so I enjoy the challenge of figuring out how to do things an easier way. When you start putting it all together, you wonder why you can't even sew a straight line. However it's done, I'm pleased and I'm sure Lex will love it.
