Gayle, hope your surgery goes well...however NO excuses if you're up to it!! :-D
I know your Bernina has a great push button on/off!

Nothing too exciting. I've been asked to make some rice bags for my greatniece and greatnephew, so I'll be making those for sure. I would also like to get back to the lap quilt I am making for my husband.

WOW lots of friends to sew with over the Holiday weekend. Getting the sewing machines all reved up and oiled. I can't wait - it'll be a 4 day weekend for me!

I'm going to try to finish the braid strips by the weekend so I can start sewing the columns together....and get them DONE on the weekend!

I'll be sewing the rows on my scrappy log cabin, making at least one new skirt, and pressing & trimming the HST's left over from the siggie block swap I just sent off; I think the HST will be part of the lable for the wonderful quilt I'm making from the swap! Plus My Weight Watcher friends & I are doing a 10 K on Monday.

Been there, done that!!! 8-) Remember to ice it, and do all of the exercises they give you!! It's easier to start when you are still taking pain pills. The hardest part is learning how to get on and off the toilet with no help. :oops:

I'm sure I will be sewing, but what I don't know yet. Hancock is also having a sale which I need to go to, because I need batting.

Also I am going to a BBQ on Monday.

I would like to start on my husbands log cabin flag quilt, or put a couple quilts together for veterans. But I don't know, since my sewing machines have not seen the light of day in over a month things aren't looking to bright for them this weekend. I have painting and LOTS of yard work to get done. Buying a house has really cut into sewing time! I'll be glad when its all done!
