It's a sunny Saturday!

Yesterday was a miserably rainy, gray and crappy weather day!!  Thankfully this morning brings the sun--not very warm, but it's sunny and bright.

I slept GREAT last night.  I was tired last night...I fell asleep in my chair before bedtime.  I thought I slept well in bed, then I checked my Fitbit sleep chart and it confirmed my suspicions!

Here it is Sunday morning and I have not finished yesterday's entry!  Well, I'll put in the doings of yesterday and get it done.

I got the Red, White & Hexi quilt top spray basted to the batting and instead of purchasing a backing fabric that was red or white, I had some blue paisley fabric that I thought would be ok.  It's all spray basted together and when I looked at it with a different mindset, I can see why I'm not particularly happy with it.  Instead of being hexagons, I have an hourglass shape!  I made a mistake in design and it's not at all what I was expecting.  Well, I was talking with Rick about it -- telling him it was going to stay "as is" and he commented, "Well, you made a new pattern!".  Exactly!  No one will know what my original intent was, and it will be fine. 

I went to JoAnn Fabrics to purchase enough of the outside red fabric to make a binding.  Surprisingly, they even had the fabric still in stock.  Thankfully, although I would have made do with another red -- there are so many different reds in this quilt it would not have made a difference.

We went to dinner with Portia and Arnett; we went to Tip Top in Stow.  Food there is "ok", and everyone seemed to enjoy their dinner except for Rick.  He got the beef stroganoff and it had so many mushrooms it was almost laughable.  I love mushrooms, but upon spearing a couple from his plate, I didn't want more.  Nothing wrong with them, but not very good.  I had a stuffed pepper that was tasty.  Portia and Arnett were on their way to the hospital to visit with their newborn grand daughter, Piper.

(We were supposed to meet Portia and Arnett at Diggers for dinner, but when we got there, they were closed for a private party!  Erin Kish came out to chat with us for a couple minutes.  Angel (her daughter) was in a treatment facility and was going to be getting out soon.  I pray Angel finds a "clean and sober" lifestyle for her future.  She has so much to be sober for, but it's a rough road.

That was yesterday, now on to Sunday!
