The Burlington, Vermont music scene loves Bernie Sanders.
Here is a link to some extremely talented musicians paying tribute by singing

ReplyDeleteI guess I was crazy busy today with the baby quilt. But! I got the last of the embroidery accomplished! That means the main portion of the top of the quilt is DONE! Now I need to add the double-border, sew three sides together, put the batting inside, do the actual quilting stitches, and sew up the last side. =Whew!= And I have two weeks, because two weeks from tomorrow we go to Maine to see the little guy again!
