My design wall is the same. This is what it looks like when I'm piecing leftover batting together. I got the bag out and started sewing just for my OB Wonder top and then it becomes like a game of how can I get these pieces to fit. Then I get bored and feel like I've wasted time. I made a good dent with the big leftover pieces but I still have a pile of small pieces that would be better left alone until a little project comes along, which I'm sure will be soon.
First of all, I did get a script for the poison ivy and it has helped a lot, between Prednisone, liquid Benadryl and spray benadryl I was able to deal with the itch until is subsided.
This past weekend was a bike trip! fun-fun.

| 1st fuel/rest stop in Ohio |
That's our bike on the left. We went to Put-in-Bay Ohio
The weather was great. We stayed in Port Clinton and took the Ferry's to the Island.
Friday we rented a golf cart and toured around then on Saturday we took a different ferry with our bikes. They were parked mostly since we had brunch and then walked all around, looked in the shops, sat on a covered porch and had smoothies and relaxed. Oh my it was so lovely. Saturday afternoon we had dinner on the covered deck of a restaurant on one of the Marina's. I'm not a big seafood person, but I had fresh yellow perch. I have been trying to remember a better meal. It was delicious. I was so relaxed I could have melted into the chair.
Um, and all I drink is water and iced tea.
No alcohol was required.
I did spy a quilt shop and we stopped in.
I enjoyed talking to the owner, who was working on a customer quilt. She was doing a panto and once again I'm thinking I really need to take some time (when?) and learn to use them.
The guys were interested in the Gammill for about 3 minutes and then they just sat in the chairs and enjoyed the AC. I bought a Schnibbles pattern "George" and a FQ bundle of Bar Harbor fabric (Minick and Simpson).
We got home Sunday in the early afternoon and although I was doing laundry and getting everything ready for the week, we really tried to maintain the relaxation mode for the rest of the day.
ah.
yea for summer.
