emma s-good job. I have all my blacks cut into squares and almost all my neutrals-just need a few more. But I'm camping all week at the beach with family for the Thanksgiving holiday (we always camp and have an old fashioned Thanksgiving dinner outside), so won't finish cutting or doing any sewing till after this week, darn!

coyotemagic-used to have a kitty who got in the middle of my sewing-miss her. My grandkiddos (one 4 yrs, one 19 mon) loved your pic-so keep posting more (of your quilt police) so I can show them.

I'm going to use this to sew a bunch of them too. I've already got a bunch of the a little triangles cut. I'm using up a lot of my scraps and don't have may that are bigger than about inches.

Sorry guys, I'm playing catch up today. For those who don't know I've been a Breast Cancer warrior for the last 3 years. The lasting effects of chemo make some days almost unbearable with neuropathy pain. On my good days, I quilt and do outside of the house things with my husband. (I drive very little now, can't feel the break peddle!)

On top of this, we are in the process of loosing our home. I'm the 99% that doesn't have adequate health coverage. I worked for the state on NC for nearly 18years before I was diagnosed and forced to go onto disability because of complications. Sometimes you have to decide between chemo treatments, house and car payment or if you are going to eat. A can of Chicken Noodle soup from the dollar store has been dinner on serveral occassions.

I tell you these things not so you feel sorry for me, but so that you understand why sometimes, I'm not on here making a lot of posts. I'm thankful that Sadiemae is keeping up with everything!! I'm a fighter and not planning on letting cancer get the better anytime soon. It's taken my brother, my grandmother and severeal other loved ones, I'll be damned if it's going to get me!! The house thing will work it's way out one way or another. As long as I have my husband and my FurBabies, I'm happy.

To end this rambling post, Thank you everyone for understanding if I'm not here right away to repond to the things you post. I do read every word as soon as I can.

brooke marie-wow! you go girl!! wish I could be sewing mine. My hubby and family give me a hard time when I'm inside the motorhome sewing, knitting or on the computer, even when it's cold outside. It's cold and damp in the shade at the beach!! We got poured on last night but luckily it cleared today.

coyotemagic: you go girl too!! hang in there-I'll keep you in my prayers. Praying you have more great days and no bad days so you can sew and quilt as much as you want to!!

Have fun sewing quilters here quilting along. I'll play catch up next week!!!

YEAH!! I have all of the units plus 25 to 30 extras sewn together - I got carried away. I still need to iron them but I'm saving that job for tomorrow. I've never done one of Bonnie's mystery quilts. I can hardly wait for Friday's new clue!!

WTG Debbie - I'm still sewing the QST. But I have the sewn ones pressed. I'm about 3/4 of the way through, then begin sewing them together into the squares. I hope I'll be done by Friday!

I can't start this until next week and I fear I'll be to far behind to catch up..... And I looked at my scrappy stash and although it's large, it is such a mix I don't know how to make it work with this mystery quilt. I'll think on it during the holiday and maybe I'll get a brilliant plan.

That said.....

Coyote you are an inspiration to me here and more so now. Please stay strong and possitive. The Lord works in mysterious ways. <3

I'm sure you can catch up. I'm not even half way there yet. I have lots of scraps, but not a lot of one particular scrap. Most are cut into 2.5 in strips that were used for somethingelse. I took it easy today pairing up my pink triangles with the turquoise so I can just zip them into the machine. Also finger pressed the fir st half of the triangles and put them together with their partners ready to be sewn.
