My Saturday

There's not much worse (ok, there is, but you know what I mean) than waking up around 3 AM and not being able to get back to sleep. That happened to me early Saturday morning.

I got up and wandered into the studio where I cut the strips for two sets of bird legs. Then I went back to bed. When I woke up a few hours later I went back into the studio to make the two sets of leg panels before I even had breakfast.
 

I met Buffy at Quilted Threads at 11:00 AM. We shopped, then looked at quilts, then had lunch and talked about quilts and all kinds of fun stuff. It was great.

Buffy gave me an Easter Basket!! I was so surprised. I haven't had an Easter basket in gosh knows who many years. The basket is ceramic, so we all know it will live on my dining room table at least one month out of the year!

 

Back at home while my fabric purchases were taking their spin through the washer and dryer, I continued working cleaning the fabric mess in the studio. I cleared the tables in the last couple of weeks and now it's time to tackle the giant mess on the floor. This is what it looked like at the end of February.

This is the studio now, so it's quite a lot better.

Then I made a bird for Saturday. I am really having fun making pink birds.

With his long legs maybe " Saturday's Bird" works hard for his living. Waking early, no answer for that down here either, but cutting, then sewing later on is very productive.

So glad you got out to socialize with Buffy. The bird is fantastic and the clean up unbelievable to me. I currently am in stack mode. I need o be in clean up mode. Keep on making birds.

Waking up at 3 am is a too frequent thing of mine. I don't get up because then I would be doomed to not go back to bed. The pink bird is springy. I am cleaning up my mess also, but it is slow going.
