I am so glad to see so many pretty pincushions and needle cases
being made/posted.

Anyone who knows me knows that I love purple, so joining this swap
with the purple theme was right up my alley.

I am glad that my partner received and liked her pincushion, and I am
doubly glad that lil Miss Claire had my name and I can't wait to start using
my pincushion.

On another note. Some of you may know (or read my post in personal diaries)
that my daughter is pregnant!, this is her eighth confirmed (yes I said 8) pregnancy
the last was being in 2008.
It has been determined that although she miscarried at 11-1/2 weeks, the baby
was only about 5 weeks. She never heard or seen ANY heartbeats with any of
her past pregnancies.

I was with her at her 6 week, and 9 week (this past Tues) appointments and
both times we SAW the heartbeat. On Tues at her appointment we got to hear
the heartbeat, and saw first movements of a arm & legs.

They (the OB) are optimistic that this time she MIGHT be able to carry to term.
With each passing week I get more optimistic too, but yet I am still not wanting
to get my hopes up to high either.

My daughter has been trying for YEARS to get my first ever quilt, and I always
told her that it was to go to my first grand baby. Well believe me she is almost
salivating knowing that she is getting closer to getting the quilt off my wall.

Here is a photo of my first quilt.



So please keep your fingers (and toes) crossed that everything continues
to progress the way they should for her.
