I finally finished the child's quilt! Someone will be getting a package in the mail in a week or two and hopefully they like it! I think I might do the binding differently next time. I like it but I went a little wider on the stripes.
I am not sure I like it. Also, for a bed quilt, I might try having the folded edge on the back. The problem is that I have a hard time matching threads!
I sewed two new couch pillows. I think that I made the pillow forms somewhere around 14-16 inches. They are much more comfortable. 
I had major zipper drama! I went with a nine inch zipper and there was not way I was getting the pillow forms inside! I had to undo and go buy two new zippers. I found that sewing them the entire length of one side was perfect. I used invisible zippers, but I don't think I would next time. I prefer the fabric flap that I usually make to cover up the zippers.
I have been pretty good about swimming at least 2-3 times a week. I notice that it is getting harder for me. I tried to do a harder 100 free on 1:20 and I just cannot go fast anymore. It was not very good for me. I can still make that time, I just cannot try to race anyone for a while!
