Is there a better way to spend a Saturday than quilting?

Home-Ec is taught in this school!

In homeschool today my son made his first loaf of bread.  Yes, we used a breadmaker but still, it's a loaf of bread!  We added home-ec to his schedule this month and it's going pretty well.  He wants to make more bread!

My latest quilt

I finished longarming a stipple design and put the binding on yesterday.  It's being shipped out on Monday!

This is what it will look like when I get mine done...
