Catching up

Sunday was a definite rest day  I couldn’t get up and do much at all. 
So of course I had fallen behind in my chores 

I’ve stripped the bed , washed the sheets snd now they’re dry and waiting to be placed back on the bed 

The weather today was warmer than usual. With strong winds. It didn’t take long for the bedding to dry. 

A load of hubbys clothes have been washed and are on the clothes horse  drying by the fire 

In between washing I was cooking and sewing 

These blocks just didn’t match with the others I had made. So they’re now going to be a quilt of their own 

Once I’ve sown them together I’ll add a couple of boarders   It will make a decent size quilt for using on the couch. 



This is the second quilt.  I’m trying to decide if I’ll add strips between all the block as well as a boarder.   
I’ll give it a thought and decide when it comes time to sew it all together 




After laying them all out. I had two blocks left over 
These have become the two cushion covers I still needed 

They’ll match the quilt and look like a whole set   Just like store bought 



I even made some scones while doing the meal prep for dinner



Dinner is done and waiting for hubby to arrive 

A load of towels will be hung up under the back porch to dry. And after finishing with a load of my clothes 
I’ll be back on schedule 

Then all I have to do is sit and knit while watching telly before finally going to bed 

Tomorrow I’ll start on the next set of chores. 
Hopefully after a good nights sleep.
