One of my online groups is doing a QOV Round Robin. My friend Peg made the center with the appliqued eagle. Didn't she do an AWESOME job!?!?!? I got it next and this is what I added for my round.
It tried kicking my butt, but I perserved. Here's what happened: I figured out how big to make the HSTs, BUT I didn't take into consideration the first strip of blue that I had put on first. DUH!!!! (Can you tell I don't like math?!?!?) I went back and cut the blue strip in half to make it work. Ahhhh, that feels good to have that done.
Now on to the shopping part.....NO I'm not talking FABRIC shopping. I'm talking CAR shopping. Ick. Over the last year we've had problems with our Sunbird not wanting to start (usually when we're AWAY from home). After several trips to the mechanic, it happened again on Thursday. DH and I both said that's it. It's lived a good life....14 years and close to 192,000 miles. After looking at the cost of used cars, we decided we're going to buy a brand spanking new car. So we will get the lovely task of dealing with car salespersons. :0( Over the past couple of days I've been researching information about cars. It'll primarily be used for me to go to work (rather than the truck) and to go on longer road trips (not that we take many). So nothing too fancy. Currently we're looking at the Chevy Cobalt (haven't decided on the coupe or sedan) and Mazda3. If anyone has one of these, let me know how you like it.
