Canadians are celebrating Victoria Day today, which is a federal holiday to mark the birthday of the reigning queen when Canada became a country in 1867. Most people get this as a paid holiday from work, and in the past we used to go camping on this 3 day weekend. But we didn't go this year as the weather has been so unpredictable.
I was able to get my Unity quilt top together this weekend and here it is on the design wall! Unity was a mystery quilt along with Bonnie Hunter at the beginning of the pandemic. I love this quilt!
Today's task is to get the quilt pin basted and ready for quilting. I'm using a eucalyptus batting in this quilt and have fluffed it up in the dryer to get the dust out of it.
What are you doing to celebrate Victoria Day?!?

Celebrating Monday In the PNW. Gotta get my stitches in! Happy Victoria Day!
Your Unity top is fabulous. I love it! Perfect for the times, and such lovely fabrics too. I have never heard of eucalyptus batting!
The goat meme is a hoot! I love the thought of it. Unity is just beautiful - the words add so much to it. Happy quilting!
I want to be a goat today too!! Sounds like a great plan for a rainy day like today.
Does Eucalyptus batting have a fragrance?
I want to be a goat too! It sounds like so much fun, hahaha. Bravo for getting Unity to the top stage. Enjoy quilting it. ;^)
Being a goat sounds like a great idea!
Love your version of Bonnie's quilt! Glad it is getting closer to becoming a real quilt.
Baby goats are so fun to watch. I always look for them at our County Fair.
I'm another one who could happily live a goat life. Your Unity quilt is utterly splendid.
Love the goat meme. Never heard of eucalyptus batting. Have you used it before? Let us know how it turns out.

Eucalyptus batting?!? I've never heard of it before. Please tell us more about it.
Your Unity quilt top came out great, can't wait to see it totally finished.
Happy Victoria Day, Kathy. I am so sorry that the weather has been unpredictable and you were not able to go camping. I hope it is warming up though. Your Unity Quilt is fabulous. I love "the being a goat" photo! I hope you have a great day.
I agree with the goat.
