I hope this weekend is going to be sunny so I can work in the yard some. It seems like life is getting pretty crazy. The main thing I learned yesterday is that at 72 my mind says “Yes you can do this…72 is just a number.” Don’t listen to that mind…72 is an older number”. The body doesn’t do as much as that mind tells you. That mind lies. I have a quilt to finish for someone, Jalapeno Peacon Brittle to make, and clean house, and got groceries. I was so tired we ordered Pizza for dinner and then was in bed by 8:45 and asleep by 9.
Today is sew for a while (finish the quilt top) and then sandwich 2 quilts, make brittle, and clean the garage. After 4pm what didn’t get done won’t get done.
The quilt I am making is for an Artist friend. We went to Missouri Star Quilts (ony 1 1/2 hours away) and she picked out the fabric. 4 Charm Packs, sashing material, and backing. She wants to send pictures to someone to show the process. So here we go…
This is what we started with and it looked kinda blah. She said it needed something so this is what I suggested and she agreed. This is going to be the top.
This will be a full size. The quilting will be a large wandering design so it does nothing to distract from the quilt colors. I will be finishing up the top.
You have a great day.
