Checking In

 It was one if those days not being able to fully engage into a project ,having to get ready & be gone most of the day ,but come tomorrow!🤣 I did get a little bit some,a few more blocks & if there were enough left from the scraps I was using for the blicks they for turned into 2 1/2 X 3 strips for a keyboard  border

Livvys quilt is set up & ready for more Baptist fan stitches 

my neighbor has these glorious yellow flower cascading over  from her neighbors side, 

Block Therapy

 Are you an early riser? I luv early mornings but this time change drives me crazy ,the clock says 5:00 but my mind says in reality its 4:00 but because the new time is 5:00 it makes feel like I over slept 🤣 I made a few more strip blocks & now have a total of  61

3 more red & white nine patch blocks

I've been plugging away at these tiny 3" nine patches for a year,the bowl is full of ones that need trimming just a tad

there are now 132 finished in the bag,still a long ways off from 400 plus 

the sun is now up,birds are chirping ,on my 2nd cup of coffee acompied with a steak omelette,now to get this day started , catch up on house work while getting bills paid, throughout the day I'll work on quilting on various quilts ,walk with my neighbor,take Grace to the park & that should bout do me in for the day 😄

Happy National Quilting Day & Past Quilts

 

Did you squeeze in some quilting projects today? I set my new machine up & gave it test run,she runs so smooth that I  kept checking to see if it was stitching 😄

I thought Id machine  the blue take five quilt since it was a lap size

I really didn't get into making quilts untill a few years ago so I've only got a few under my belt but there's 4 tops hanging in the closet & binding on the 9 patch is almost finished,Casons - & Livvys quilts will make it to the finish line by the end of this month so I'm looking for  4 finishes for March , between 2022 & 2025 I've made 11 quilts, with all the other sewing projects that I do that's pretty good for me😄

Happy 1st Day Of Spring

 How are you kicking off your 1st day of Spring?nothing better than early morning coffee with  snuggles with a snuggly Spring quilt 

Sometimes Plans Change

Yesterday started out good with cleaning & working on the quilts till my niece asked if I could stay with her grands Cason & Livvy,so the day went from all day quilt sewing marathon 😄 to swinging,playing games with a favorite doll,spying out flowers that were blooming around the yard,making slime cats& snowmen,even slime ice cream🤣 these two keep me young at heart for sure!🤣

A Stich Here & A Stitch There & Somebody's Put Out With Me

 

Grace says of its not hers shes not saying cheese!she may not even want to be part of the photo shoot🤣when its for me I let her snuggle under it beside me while I stitch watching movies but when they are gifts that's a no depending on how far along I will often take a break from it & pull put a me quilt & put on a movie & she forgives me & all is well ,"spoilt to the max"! 🤣

I will work on this throughout the day as long as my fingers don't go numb lol I am alternating  the rows with straight stitches & Baptist fan stitches
