It's Play Off time

Friday night, I got to watch the Lewisville Fighting Farmers dominate in round two of the Texas High School 6-A Playoffs where Gabe is a defensive coach.
Thursday morning was a pre-feast football practice. Practicing on Thanksgiving morning is considered an honor here as it means the team is still in the playoffs.
These girls (teenagers - they look younger every year, right?) are warming under a quilt I sent down. Gabe keeps it in his office for students to use when they have a down hour and need a nap. These girls are running a drone to film practice but the wind is brisk this morning.



Then I had a tour of their practice facility.




Gabe's office with a nod to Ted Lasso. This is his 20th year coaching. Some of his fellow coaches now were his students several years ago.

Shop Update

 Here's an update on the shop remodel:

We started working on it as soon as the shop closed on July 16. There was about a 6 week delay as we waited to get on the schedule with a flooring company to refinish the wood floors.

That is what's going on now and, with holidays in the middle, we should be able to finish up in December and January.  

Watch for a Day Camp in the newly remodeled area on String Quilting Stars, maybe February.
