Yesterday's voting was quite interesting. Looks to me as though the biggest loser of the day was DJT. Of course it isn't over until it's over, but it certainly wasn't the blowout Republican victory that was expected. That alone makes it a day worth celebrating since so many of the Republicans on ballots around the country were/are demonstrably crazy loons. Case in point being Doug Mastriano who was running for governor here in Pennsylvania. Luckily he did not win. Josh Shapiro is quite middle of the road rather than far left so he is a real good fit for this state that has such wide disparities in life and expectations around the state. The old saying is that Pennsylvania is Pittsburgh and Philadelphia separated by Appalachia.
I am still enjoying my new project. I have completely quilted 7 of the 9 inner blocks and most of one of the two remaining blocks as well. The outside border isn't very wide and the inner double border will be the one that provides the most challenges since it is half green and white check and half black floral. Marking on black fabric is always a problem for me so I am going to try to mark and quilt that section from the back rather than the front. I know that is not the best way to do it but I don't think it will make a substantial difference in the finished quilt. Of course most of my quilts never see the light of day once I finish them or at least only for a brief time either on our bed or hanging on the wall so obsessing about the right way to do them is a waste of time.
