A quilt top is born...

I remembered to turn the alarm on, but it went off at 7 and I wasn't ready to get up. I won't say what happened next, but I woke up again at 10. I got up and went into the kitchen to find that the three jars of kimchi I left out to ferment, had leaked all over the counter. I cleaned up that mess, and put them in the fridge. Then I prepared breakfast and ate while reading e-mail. I don't mind reading e-mail, it is the audios and videos that frustrate me. Some of them are not marked as to length, so I don't know if I have time to listen to them. And some are a waste of time, but I won't know that until I have heard the whole thing.
When I got tired of computer time, I continued work on the quilt top. I had already made the chevron rows, and today I made the center row. I had to add another set of borders to get the width right. Now comes the satisfaction of being finished.
Chris dressed in his Hawaiian shirt and went to an engineers party. He invited me, but I chose not to go since it was uncertain that I would know anyone there.
Michele and I watched a couple of episodes of MacGyver while she folded laundry. Then I went back to my computer to listen to an audio by Carol Look. I was in the process of writing to my blog when Michele came in to talk. We were still talking when Chris came home at 11:45. Now they are putting clean sheets on the beds while I finish posting.
