Last night was an evening of Mexican Train (with Jeannie, Wanda, Gina, Patricia, Annaliza, and Vicki) and good food; that always makes for a fun evening.  Of course there was also alcohol involved...

  

FYI - The ladies all loved my Brazen Bluebirds quilt, and I eventually got a quilting pattern picked out for Ruby to use.  Of course I'll post pictures once Ruby has worked her magic - but if you're really curious there is a picture (over on the right) of the top before I added the two borders; just keep scrolling down until you spot it.

Jeannie came up with (yet another) bright idea.

Since we're all going to be 'stuck in town'* over the coming holiday weekend, 

why not get together and sew?  So we will, on Saturday.

*This time last year I was up in Show Low 'camping' with Jan in her RV over the 4th of July weekend.  Now there is a wildfire raging there.

Fire crews are still trying to get a handle on the San Juan wildfire burning in Eastern Arizona.  It's now burned 5,000 acres, and there have been some mandatory evacuations.  As many as ninety structures are now threatened, say fire officials on Saturday.
