Today I visited Betty who sent out an invitation for any of our Thread Therapy girls to come and sit in her lovely clean patio. As it happened I was on my last day off of 9 in a row, so we sat in the dry early summers day under her cool patio and did some stitching. I managed to get the last teal circle sewn to the border. The quilt is now ready for basting then quilting.
Betty also gave me a demonstration of her new Bernina. She is much bigger in size than Bernina Virtuosa's. I don't have a photo but I did manage to get one of Betty's Sue Daly's civil war quilt still under construction.
It is a bit blurry but you can see the beauty. Very tempted to try the one out.
I also received a new book this week. I've been looking at Modern Patchwork by Elizabeth Hartman for a while so I decided to treat myself.
I've got my eye on these two first up...

This quilt is also going back to Live in Italy with Ale on Saturday.
Well that's it for today.
