Heartstrings #5

I finished sewing the binding and label on late this afternoon. So Heartstrings #5 is ready to go back to guild next Monday and I'll be picking up more blocks to make the final one for this year then also. This pic was taken in my basement, on the couch in front of the longarm.

Spent most of the day cleaning and doing laundry. It's a pain in the neck job, but someone has to do it! vbg Tomorrow is errands again and hopefully Wednesday or Thursday I can get back to working on my jacket. The high today was 88, but tonight the more seasonal temps return and tomorrow it's only supposed to reach 70 degrees. So, I really want to finish the jacket!

Gratitudes:
A new grandchild of my friend was born this weekend. She and mama are doing okay, although she did arrive by unscheduled c-section.

How did I miss this one? I love it but then I've loved the previous 4 too! I'm going to grab the photo for the HeartStrings album.
