Aidan was returned not feeling well on Friday - after a rough night he was better on Saturday. He did take it easy all day though with a break in the afternoon for some pool time with Emily and me. The pool temps hit 85 and that is when I make it into the pool! We got in before the rain started late yesterday afternoon.
Today I'll putter a bit picking up the house and then will shut myself away in the sewing room for a few hours.... the graduation quilt needs the last borders, a backing needs to get pieced and I want to make my 3 pink blocks for the RSC Challenge sampler before we dip into June! My goal is to get the graduation quilt pinned today for some quilting tomorrow.
I'll also prep my last dresden block for some hand work this evening. I left the dark blue one for last. I finished off the border of the maroon one this morning before everyone else woke up. I'm linking up with the other slow stitchers today at Kathy's Quilts.
I have a few more hearts to share - Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
There are only a few more days left in the one heart a day in the month of may challenge. 4! I have a few to prep for the smaller blocks and one last one to prep for the big heart. How are you coming along with the challenge? I laid out mine on Thursday to see how they were coming along. I think I prefer the hearts in the corners so I will need all 32 of mine to go with the 31 connector nine patch blocks. Link up below.
Have a Happy and Safe Memorial Day weekend for those in the states. Remember all those who have served our country, especially those who have given the greatest sacrifice for our democracy and freedoms. May their sacrifice never be forgotten.

Your projects are all so lovely!
Isn't it just the best time for stitching before everyone wakes up... lovely and quiet! Can you believe you are quilting the last dresden?!?!
Thanks for linking up to Slow Sunday Stitching!
Best of luck on finishing the graduation quilt and finding time for your PINK sewing!!
It is a beautiful blue dresden plate, and after you hand quilting it it will be gorgeous as the others. Enjoy your Slow Sunday Stitching day.
I hope your little guy is feeling lots better by now. The hearts and Dresdens continue to look fantastic. Where did May go?
i hope that he's completely over whatever ailed him / your quilting progress on the dresdens has been fun to see :)
You are down south in Florida hitting those high temps and our temps in PA are just as high the last few days :( Feels like Mid-July not the end of May
Your dresdens are looking great, going to be a beautiful quilt.
