Yay!

The quilt is done! Or, at least the hard part is done. All that is left now are the two borders for the front, the back itself, and putting it all together! But I'm done with the small crazy strips of black fabric and I'm done with lining up lines and praying that it all turns out square!



The colors are not nearly as pretty in this picture as they are IRL. The light from the pool table and the general iffy quality of photos taken from my iPhone are to blame...

It's time for another post I suppose

So I talked to Whitney today for like half an hour, which was fantastic because I'm pretty sure the last time I talked to her was at graduation. Yeah. A year ago. :-(

And I'm figuring out plans for moving to Chicago! I'm hoping to spend a day in SoCal and a day or two in Tulsa on the way, so I'll keep all of you people we know along the way posted.

I can't believe we're moving in two weeks. That's insane. TWO WEEKS! And I haven't even started packing!

But in other more awesome news, I have started making myself a quilt. It's going to be fantastic.


I'm taking fifteen of the ginormous tshirts that we got for free at TU (that I will never wear again, see: ginormous) and turning them into an awesome soft warm quilt for when it gets cold in Chicago! It's an important project right now, cuz the sewing machine is the first thing on the list that gets left behind if (read: when) we run out of room for stuff in the van!

Also, Watson got his summer haircut...


Now we just have to actually wait for the summer weather to finally begin up here. Poor dog, got all his hair cut off so that he won't be horribly hot, and he's probably a bit cold, given the recent lack of good weather!
