Countdown to Completion

Sweltering through another day indoors, where at least the temperatures don't get above 86ºF. The A/C repairman is due tomorrow around noon. Fingers crossed it's a quick fix!

10 June edit: It was (new capacitor installed). In addition, the day has been relatively cool and breezy--all the windows in the house are open so we can enjoy this unexpected nice weather.
 
Today I'm working on the borders of Jesse's quilt, free-motioning this Feather Chain pattern. It might turn out to be my new favorite! The yellow AURifil thread blends well on this fabric, but the pattern itself is easy enough to eyeball and doesn't really need the extra 'help' of a busy pattern to hide my ham-handed efforts. Feather patterns tend to break my brain, but this one is so simple that I can execute it smoothly and consistently.

An empty bobbin called the end of today's quilting. Just 2 sides of the yellow border to quilt, then the final black&white border. I just remembered, however, that I've got to create a label and get it sewn to one of the unquilted corners! Then I can finish the quilting on this and get it bound, washed, and delivered.
