Bev, Even though he didn't finish completely, it must be nice having things getting 'back to normal.'

Sorry, the floor guy did not finish yet. When he wants his pay bad enough, he will be back to finish up. Glad you had a good day, Dublb.

It is a cold, rainy day again here...drizzles all day for the last three days and today is more of the same. Good quilting weather...and crock pot meals. May the sun shine on you all.

I didn't realize you had a birthday yesterday, Bev... Happy Belated Birthday! I'm glad you enjoyed your day. <:)

QNS, same weather here. You've inspired me-- I'll put something in my crock pot. Did you know, but I never had one, and wanted to try one all my life? You girls talking about easy and tasty meal from the crock pot got me looking at my local Goodwill. I bought one recently for $5 there. It works great. I should have bought one long ago! Don't the meals make a nice scent in the house, just as if you have food in the oven!

Yes, Happy birthday, Bev! It sounds like you had a cozy time, with nice things happening.

Givio, I use the liners in the crock pot and clean up is a breeze. Take out the food and liner, and wipe out the crock pot! Most times I use the Dutch Oven cast iron pot on low heat on the stove...does the same thing.


I am addicted to Super Brownies ...DH chewy fudge brownies...add mini chips, small pkg of chocolate pudding, chocolate syrup and top with caramel syrup streaks. Sometimes I frost it; sometimes I don't. A small piece is a great fix for my chocolate satisfaction. Happy belated Birthday, Dublb.

Rain is gone, tomorrow and all week will be sunny! Sewing S&W rows, one stitch at a time. Hope I have enough octagon pieces, I cannot find that fabric now. Everything else in it, yes., but not the main Hibiscus fabric. So much for getting organized.

NS, could you have sent that fabric to one of us? I don't think I have it, but it might help if you post a photo of it so we can all look.

I'm using some of your gift fabric in a quilt I'm making right now... a pale pink floral. :o

FYI...no hibiscus fabric here..I hate it when I misplace stuff...the twins' quilts are coming along...Will take a photo later tonight...supposed to be wet and cold until midweek...raining now...have some more office work to do first.

No, I do not think I sent any of it out. It is here somewhere. Have lots more to move out to get it under control. I am progressing on UFOs, which is great.

Weather here has cleared through a week from the coming Tuesday. It will hit 60 degrees on Tuesday and Thursday this week.

DH will clean out the hen house today. I will sew on the S&W, creating the rest of each row. I want it finished in a week. Setting deadlines for myself, so I will get things done. Also have a lovely mini quilt hanging on my wall in the QR to encourage a forward movement...made by another QB member...who does them so well.
