Treasures

I finished this quilt.

You will have to forgive me,
but
I'm feeling victorious right now.


I went to an estate sale yesterday.
I walked in the house and the entire living room was
full of tables stacked with fabric.
They were selling it by the pound.
It wasn't really selling.

I need to tell my family,
If anything ever happens to me,
Just give the fabric away...
or 
Throw it away.



I did buy these.
Who remembers when you could buy thread for 29 cents?  

Love them.

Just keep swimming

My oldest son had a roommate in college that kinda became part of the family.

One day, he said, 
When I get married, will you make us a quilt?

Of course I said yes.

So here I am two weeks before school ends
machine quilting a quilt top I had in my 
'to-do' pile.



It's all good, and I couldn't be happier for him.


Good to be Home

I finished this cross stitch.  I'm looking forward to visiting the Redwoods this Summer with my kids.  I was home this weeke...
