Default Happy Saturday 😊

Hi everyone. Such lovely fabrics and stories! I had to giggle over the comparisons of stockpiles. When I quit working in 2022 I had at least 4 of the dish packs that movers used filled for the move to the lake house. There were at least 10 full-to-queen size floppies packed to be quilted. I justified buying the long arm machine in 2024 just to do my own quilts. *giggle* I have been buying backing fabric and bolts of some colors for backing in addition to more stash since then. I owe my granddaughter a college graduation quilt, a nephew has a double wedding ring quilt in progress, a sweet 16 for the girl across the street, I've promised a compass rose to a sailor friend, more baby/lap quilts, ... and the stash doesn't get smaller. Lol 😆

Janice, I hope your hubby and doggy are doing well. My fabric was mailed Friday and you should have the tracking number. There's such a lovely variety of patterns this boom. I am trying to be patient but it's hard.

My sweetheart is doing better now that the weather has warmed up. He's enjoying the yard work.. We spent Easter weekend with family in Arkansas; that was a lot of driving for us. Who said they had 2 twelve hour days ahead of them? Yeesh! Travel safely.

We have family coming on the 18th for two weeks. It'll be good to visit with my 83 y.o. brother. He's talking about getting a hip replacement soon but he still gets around and lives by himself.

That's enough for now. Y'all take care and stay safe!
