Yesterday was dyeing day (the last until after vacation) so I didn't get a lot of other things done. But I was really pleased with myself for getting the firefighter quilt loaded and basted.....until I took this photo and realized that I loaded it UPSIDE DOWN! If you look at the takeup bar you can see that the backing is a gradient and I want the top of the quilt to be at the yellow end. I didn't have the energy to take it out and re-do it. That will be on today's agenda.

But the first order of business is to spread the last load of mulch! This is either #8 or #9. I've lost count. Once it's done I will probably be done with mulching for about 18 months, maybe 2 years. I do enjoy doing it so don't be surprised if I do a touch up next year.

After this is done, I'll get into the basement and fix the firefighter quilt.

The firefighter quilt is very nice, but I really love seeing the mosaic in the background. I remember well the posts that showed sections as you created that.

I think we have all made that mistake! Have a great vacation!

I love how your photos give us peeks at other things - like your fabulous mosaic wall. The mulch truck a peek of the beautiful trees in the background - no sure what is blooming. The quilt is a WOW!!! Have a wonderful weekend

I must admit I was completely puzzled about the 'upside down' aspect of that quilt and finally realized that you wanted the yellow part of the backing to be at the t'other end of the quilt. Mystery solved, but I'm pretty sure I lost a few more brain cells over that one.
