I woke up this morning and discovered my husband sneaking around the kitchen. Derek promptly told me to “Go away.” About 10 minutes later this plate appeared before me.

Now that, my friends, was an empowering breakfast!

We ran errands to Costco, spent a 50% coupon for fabric for one of my baby’s quilts, spent a 40% off coupon on batting and I came home and finished the kitchen mat.

It was my first attempt at free motion quilting. Not bad from the front… fortunately, the back will be resting on floor and not for display. I’ve got a ways to go before I’ll be good at free motion quilting 😀
