Busy Day

Yesterday I started by working on my granddaughter's Easter dress - got it to a certain point then moved on to my quilt in the frame. I quilted one row and decided to play with my embrodery machine.

So I pulled up my box of scraps............

and made these


I figured since my 1st Dresden is so old and wore out that I'd make another one. Needless to say it will probably take forever since I have so many UFO's already.

Now for today I need to do laundry, dishes, cook dinner, sweep and mop, and finish the Easter dress so I can mail it off tomorrow. I would like to find time to wash and wax my car.
This is what it is supposed to look like - needless to say it doesn't look like that with all the pollen in the air.
Where does everyone find the time to get everything done. My to-do list is off the wall. I definately need to retire.

Fun blocks. I love the decorative stitching between the petals.

Trust me....there is even less time when you retire!!!! I think it has something to do with organization. lol

I don't think everyone gets everything done, it is the old syndrone of the grass looks greener on the other side. I never seem to have enough time for all I have to do much less what I want to do. I guess we just have to hang in there.
