I spent my 12th summer writing poetry and enjoying playing with words. I did save the poems and they are packed away in the attic in one of the trunks.
I do remember one poem was called "The Last Day of August" and it is a sad adieu to summer. The poem wasn't just about going back to school soon. I didn't like autumn even then.
I'm looking back at the summer months and seeing that again I didn't get accomplished as much as I had planned. Creating a quilt in summer is challenging in the heat. Thankfully I have handwork again. Have you gotten a lot done?
The last few days were cooler and less humid and I did accomplish a lot on the Paula quilt. The top should be done by Wednesday. I'd like to get my brother's quilt top done soon so I can get these to Lizzie (the machine quilter). I only need a few baby quilts yet and then I will be caught up.
What are you doing this week?
Have a safe and happy day!
I don't plan on completing as much sewing/quilting in the summer as the other seasons, I enjoy being outside even though it's hot. I have accomplish a lot of applique, I think anyway. We do have air conditioning in this house which is a wonderful thing, especially at night. Happy stitching!
