I'm Still Here!!

YIKES!! 
 It's been over a week since I posted!!
Where does the time go?????


No, seriously!!  Where does it go?
Do we find out the answers to these
important questions when we die?
Like where does mulch go?
How can socks go missing
between the washer and the dryer?
And why does time just fly by???
I'm just sayin'... NO FAIR!!


I've had some busy days lately.
The first weekend of October was our
annual fall guild retreat.


We've been going to this same
retreat site for years


and at this fall retreat
we found out it was our
last time to be there.


So, we were all a bit sad
as we sewed and chatted.


I did make a Christmas quilt top,
a table runner top, and I
finished a shaggy quilt UFO.
I finished the tablerunner
this week after work.


It was a kit I bought a while back from
Nancy's Notions.


I really like the fabrics allot.


I think it will be great to use
in the summer, don't you?


Last weekend my husband and I
went to visit my son and his girlfriend
at VA Tech.  Her parents came, too,
 and we had a lovely weekend in Blacksburg.


Don't they make a cute couple?
