Another trip to Georgia

It's deja vu all over again... here we are in Georgia unpacking a truck and gazillion boxes. Well, maybe not that many, but scads of stuff. I thought we had downsized before we packed, but we are getting rid of even more stuff now that we are here trying to find a place to put it all!
Tim shaved a 1/4 inch off the bases of the dining room cabinets to get them to fit close to the wall. The saw made Molly so scared, I thought it would be good to take her to see the new road and neighborhood. Up the road we went, taking in the cool morning air and woodland sounds. We walked to the new construction and then chickened out for the huge hill. When I am in better shape we'll take it on. Back to the entrance and then home. Lots of up and down hills, and some rest stops along the way.
We were so tired last night, we turned in at 9 pm! When you do that, you are wide awake at 5:30. I don't see too many sunrises, so it was a treat. I wish I had taken the picture a few minutes earlier when the sky was fiery red, but Molly needed to go, and that takes precedence!
No sewing yet...I'm not sure, but I think the retreat quilt project got a free ride to Georgia without being worked on. We have to take back the truck, go to Walmart yet again, and drop in at the Home Depot for some replacement light bulbs for the kitchen.
Enjoy your day!

Molly enjoyed the outdoors

cozy fire in the evening

our sleeping quarters. Don't you like the bedside 'tables'?

Cabinets in and the cover finally on my chair!

Front porch with the new rockers...sweet!

Construction happening up the road from us. This house really hangs over the cliff. Very scary looking!

The road home .

One last thing...

Tomorrow we go to the house in Georgia and I will have limited sewing time there, so I decided to make the blocks for the next retreat project today and get a jump on the quilt. They went really fast, too!
Maybe you'll see some sewing from the new digs...who knows?!

Customer's Modern Sampler finished!

This quilt was a stretch for me, because I don't get too many 'modern' style quilts from customers. The batting is a thinner cotton, so I didn't want the quilting too dense or it would have been stiff instead of soft and drapey. I used a lot of straight line quilting with some swirls and circles to soften the look. There are eight colors of variegated thread on it! I think it looks great, and the customer will be pleased.
Mr Wazoo did one quilt today, and then went outside to gather up pots and yard ornaments for the trip to Georgia on the weekend. We will have another truckload of stuff going, but much smaller than the last time. It may only take one more load after this to completely move out. The Gammills will be the last things to go. I sure hope I have all my quilts from the queue finished!!
Enjoy the photos...I got carried away taking photos of the blocks. :o)

The back is pieced, and shows the quilting up nicely

Raffle quilt quilting all done!!

I started early and got the raffle quilt finished! I am stoked to have it off my table and on to the binding whiz. The colors don't show up as I would like, but you get the idea. I put it on the murphy bed, but it isn't the best bed to photograph quilts on. Oh well, I will get a better picture when it is hanging properly somewhere.
Now, back to work, and on to the next project in my line of quilts to be done!

On the rack with just the stitch in the ditch done

Three days later...all done!

The back is pieced, too

Here is sort of how it would look on a bed

Ready to go to the next person to finish.
