Black Friday

Who’s shopping on Friday?  Not me!  I know all my blog readers are nice, mannerly folks but just a reminder . . those people who are working at the retail establishments . . they may need a smile or a kind word because not all those shoppers are nice, mannerly folks.   The world needs more nice, mannerly folks!

This morning, as I was sitting at my computer resting my bum knee so I can get back to the longarm, I was patting myself on the back (which hurts because I got an H1N1 shot yesterday and my arm is sore!) and I thought . . not shopping isn’t enough.  I need to do something nice for someone.   I figured there will be leftovers so I shouldn’t have to cook at all on Friday.  Are there football games on TV?  If so, Vince will be glued to the TV and he’ll be real happy for me to stay downstairs sewing and out of his hair.  Chad will hunt on Friday morning and he’ll be working Friday afternoon/night.  Remember . . be nice to those retail workers!  :)

I came up with two possibilities for tops I should be able to start and finish by the end of the weekend . . especially if I can sew a bit today and tomorrow and then all day Friday.  Not sure which one of these I’ll make but these will be real easy for stash quilts.

Which one do you like best?  If someone were giving you a quilt . . just something in the 60″ x 80″ range, something to use on the sofa . . which one would you like?  I’m not trying to match anyone’s decore . . just a little “thanks for being nice” quilt.
