It cooled off and has been cloudy with a few rain showers.  I dug out some old men's suit jackets - used three tweed jackets to make a couch throw. The backing was pieced together flannel. I left the pockets on some of the pieces...  Should be very warm and durable.

Also, completed the binding on a table cloth I started several years ago, I did not like the quilting and left it. I ripped it out and made some modifications. Certainly, not a favourite piece, but it is complete.

Have dyed fabrics for my next project - sunflower and rubeckia.

Heat

It has been so hot that it is hard to motivate the creative side.  Had a wonderful visit with Tyler and Rebecca. Tyler just returned from South Africa the day they left Vancouver to drive north. So admire his ability to deal with jet lag -- something I do not do well.  He brought me a very thoughtful gift - a beaded hippo - I am so fascinated with the technique...

I have taken a lot of flower pictures and have a few I would like to work on... so need to do some fabric dying... this heat would create some beautiful pieces.
