    Please send fairies...

    I need a ton of time to put into quilting today and I awoke tired. :hmpf!:

    This quilt would be due for a show on Tuesday but I'm also giving the program at guild on Monday night. I'm nearly all ready for that but you know all the nerves that will come tomorrow may not be good for quilting.

    I'm sending good thoughts your way. Calm, deep breaths, may the stitches flow out in beauty!

      ... and if the fairies can't get there fast enough, a 20-minute cat-nap might help. Good wishes to you!

        Joyce I have sent a few good luck fairies your way (I suppose that would be Leprechauns :lol: ). You have to focus on the quilting and don't let the nerves get in the way. Nerves are just the adrenalin kicking in to help get you through tomorrow evening. They are your body's way of helping you through all this, they are not there to hinder you. Trust me, I know a thing or two about nerves.

          Sending good wish fairies from North Carolina! I think the cat nap might work miracles for the nerves as well and make the stitches more even.

            I am PLEASED to announce that as of 9 p.m. Central time, the quilting is done AND the program photos are loaded on the USB stick (power point) and the notes are printed out.

            :mrgreen: :SNOOPY DANCE: :mrgreen:

            I had an hour nap AND a chat with a girlfriend. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!

            I'm going to trim the quilt and see about prepping the binding. Sometimes it just helps to have friends who understand praying and supporting me.

                  My daughter had a T-Shirt a few years ago which read "The Leprechauns Made Me Do It" - looks like you need a T-Shirt like that Joyce! :lol:
