To finish 10 quilts in a year, especially this year, is quite a feat for me. And this 10th one has really been a challenge. You see, as the wife of an only child, I have been put in charge of my 90 year old MILs healthcare. She has been in the hospital 15 of the last 20 days and in a rehab facility for 3 more. One of the hospitals she was in was 52 mile away, so after work each day I would drive to sit with her for an hour or so and drive back home. The rehab facility is 25 miles away so still a drive but not nearly as bad. The point being, my studio time has been very limited.
Even so, Susan's #3 memory quilt is now complete. I labeled them "Memories of PopPop", "Memories of PopPop 2" and this one is "Memories of PopPop with a twist"
Her son is an LSU fan and PopPop was an Auburn athlete.
I did have an opportunity to visit J Light Quilt Shop, in central Alabama, that was closing for the winter. They had 40% off everything. I purchased 23 yards of fabric, a package of 52 pre-printed labels and several other notions. I'm already looking forward to them reopening in the spring.
Until next time, wishing you more stitchin time than I will have.

Ten quilts in a year--wow! And I'll bet they're all as beautiful as this one.
Ten quilts is a fabulous amount to finish in a year! What a fine memory quilt you created. How interesting that the shop closes for the winter!
