Crappy Saturday

Yes it is Crappy Saturday here at Kathy's Quilts! 

The sewer backed up into the basement on Thursday night which will cause a huge repair expense when it hopefully gets fully fixed next week. It also caused me to miss out on a weekend quilting retreat with friends in Trout Creek. Instead of quilting with my friends I am cleaning the basement 😰


I am thinking about how sewer and sewer are heteronyms - the words are spelled the same but mean very different things! 



I will spend half the day in the sewer basement, and half the day in the sewer room!

Making more disappearing pinwheel blocks has been such a delight. 

I have finished 6 disappearing pinwheel blocks in blue (which is the colour of the month for the Rainbow Scrappers). Here they are on the design wall.

  6. I hope the sewer problem is fixed so that the sewer can play with her scraps! Your disappearing pinwheels are really fun, Kathy!

  7. Oh dear, a nasty sewer problem, I do hope it will be quickly fixed. When I first started reading I thought you meant that a sewer/sewist had backed her car into your basement!

  8. Thanks for the laugh this morning, cut the water indeed, LOL!! I think the sewer having one meaning waste transport is the reason why I use the term sewist to refer to a sewing artist.

  10. Oh man! I feel for you! We have a sump that quits working every once in awhile! What a mess! Every time I type sewer( meaning I sew), I think sewer ( the yucky drain thing) and have to stop and giggle!

  11. Oh, goodness, Kathy.I can imagine how frazzled you have been especially missing the retreat as well. I hope all is resolved soon. Love those pinwheels being produced out of the sewer's room.
