The unbelievable happened this morning. I was up a few minutes after eight and had finished breakfast and was busy working on the quilt by nine. I cannot believe what I did which caused me to have to make another trip to Ruston for more blue and black fabric. I figured how many inches I needed cut into two-inch wide strips for borders but forgot to figure the long borders. I could have pieced the borders but I have an aversion to pieced borders unless they are pieced of different fabrics and planned. Had to buy one and three fourths yard of blue and black and only need four inches from each. Oh well I will use the left over fabric in the mission quilts.
I can’t believe that I keep forgetting that any job always takes at least twice as long to complete as I plan. i had plans to have the back of the quilt finished tonight but not going to make it. There is a chance that Mignon will not be leaving next weekend but will stay until the end of June. Hope I can find out for sure for that will take some of the pressure off. But I think I can get it finished by this time next week. Certainly going to try. As soon as I post this I am going to finish the decorative stitching on the borders and then to bed by midnight.
