Cause(s) for Celebration

Happy Friday! I have two causes to celebrate today:

Number one: I’ve completed the top of Berried Treasure, based on my own 4-Patch Wonder pattern. The Dear Husband obliged by taking this photo of me with the top late this afternoon:

The top measures 69″ x 83″ at the moment. I made an error in calculating the length of strips for the outer borders. They’ll still finish at a generous six inches wide but the quilt will be a couple inches smaller all around than its fraternal twin Framboise, made years ago with the same focus fabric in a different colorway.

Number two: The DH and I are celebrating our 44th wedding anniversary today — woohoo! We just returned from a lovely dinner at A Cena, one of our favorite restaurants in Portland.

It’s been a good day!
