The first two borders are nearly done. I am going to alternate the other borders with wide dark and narrow light. I didn't make all four at once because I get so easily mixed up I would probably have to do a lot of ripping out. They are going really fast and I hope to finish the borders tomorrow and get them on. My light colored and pink scraps are going to be very low and it looks like I'll be thrift shopping for fabrics on payday. Oh darn! I'm getting anxious to get them done, I have so many other things to finish up there in the sewing corner and the summer is going to be so busy.

It's still not warm enough out under the back porch to wind warp, so I am waiting on that. We are in a cold spell right now and I have even had the heater on a little down here in the afternoons. The Pinwheels are coming along pretty fast now, I almost found the top of the sewing machine last night while I was working.

We'll be going camping in just a couple of weeks now, and less than a month after that is our annual trip to Lincoln stopping at the zoo in Omaha. Definitely a busy summer. David and Leon helped Timothy and Rosa move this last weekend. They are quite a bit closer to us now. Hopefully it will warm up enough for me to work on the warp so I can get some weaving time in after we get back from our trips. Ambrosina is talking of another camping trip in August. That will be nice too. Plenty to look forward to, as well as the day to day with the boys home and the house noisy again. That's the best part of summer!
