Vacation is off to a rather damp and chilly start. According to the local media, it should be dry and around 80 F today. Instead it is pouring, the local rivers are dangerously high, and it was 41 F when I woke up. The rain is supposed to end today and we're supposed to see a high in the upper 50s, but there's no hope of warmth today. I'm happy to say that they are predicting much nicer weather for the remainder of the week...
Most of Friday and Saturday were spent in the car, so I didn't get much done in the way of sewing. I did manage to finish one of my BOW blocks from last summer - I started it last year and had picked it up recently as a quick take-along project, and have been chipping away at it ever since. I brought the next block along to prep - I love wool applique! I had really hoped to have the new BOW in hand before we left, but it must have been sent on the slow horse - I received the thread, but not the project. Looks like I will be at least two weeks behind on that one!
I'm back to working on My Garden Album block 11 now. The lighting in our cabin isn't the greatest, particularly with the lack of sunshine, so applique is a bit of a struggle. We're planning to brave the rain today and visit the shops in town. The area is beautiful, and the cabin is really wonderful. We've got a nice fire burning in the fireplace as I write. I'll have to post a few pics later. Back to sewing!
