So Far Behind
With blogging, with stitching, with decluttering, with..........it goes on and on.
I don't know why I put off posting so long. Maybe because I'm not really a writer?
Let's get on to quilty things.
I made a quilt out of my MIL's pajamas for the caregiver/neighbor. She absolutely loved it.
My PHD's have not progressed at all. But I'm almost finished quilting the Christmas quilt.
My friend and I went to Quilt Week in Paducah, KY. It was our first but not our last. We had a blast!!! We detoured several times on the way there to see quilt barns. That was fun too. We stayed in Metropolis, IL home of superman.
We spent several hours in Hancock's of Paducah. I purchased five quilt kits 😬. And two sets of coordinating layer cakes. The question is, can I complete them before next year?
Now let's get on to the squirrels.
DH and I purchased a motorhome and have been spending time (and money) trying to outfit it.

March is....
Almost over?
A lot happening in our neck of the woods.
A former coworker that I made quilts for her and her sister out of their dad's clothing, called and asked if I could make her granddaughter a quilt for graduation. She is a softball player and her number is 9. When she finally contacted me to make it in January and asked if I could get it completed by Senior Night. One of the fabrics needed to be prepped for the teammates and coaches to autograph blocks and then the autographs needed to be gotten and returned. I told her I didn't think I could. I told her my grandson is playing baseball for a junior college and that was going to take up my weekends and with a full time job I only have the evenings. And then DD and SIL were planning a trip and I would be spending a week with the grands commuting to and from work. She still wanted me to make it.
Well, I made it!!! I completed it and Senior Night isn't until April 14th.
All washed and crinkled. It finished at 72 x 72.
My friend an I joined the local quilt guild. They meet during the day on Thursday but I've decided I have enough vacation days that I can use between now and January.
