Finally

If you've been wondering about the progress of the garage/studio and waiting to see lots of pictures, I'm afraid there isn't going to be much here of that. We have been looking at a cinder block fortress for a month now. During that time, the plumbing and electrical rough-ins have been installed and passed inspection. Several tons of stone have been delivered. The dirt has been pushed around, filling up most of the trenches around the foundation. And today the base for the concrete slab has been laid out.


All nice and neat, very nicely gridded, just like a quilt. Weather permitting, the cement will be poured on Monday and the trusses will be delivered on Tuesday. And then we should really see some progress.

Meanwhile, I've received acceptances for two shows. Quilts=Art=Quilts, in Auburn NY and Art Quilts VXII in Chandler AZ. Here is the info from the postcard, just in case you're in the area. 




And right now I'm plowing through the information about Medicare enrollment. This is one more indication that growing old is not for the faint of heart. It's all very confusing.
