Congrats on both your accomplishments - quitting the cigs and your beautiful quilt! :thumbup:

Congrats on the great quilt & quitting smoking. I've almost completed 3 yrs. & should have done a quilt also.

Oh my goodness, what a great idea. I have a very good friend who talks about quitting smoking and taking up quilting.

Her DD is on a long waiting list to adopt a child. This would be the prefect project for her. She can keep her hands busy, learn to quilt and have a gift for her grandchild when it arrives. (likely to be at least one more year of waiting).

We are going to a quilt show this weekend. I will suggest it to her. She is welcome to us my stash of fabric.

I started my first Hexi project while travelling in May. It was great to have a project to occupy my hands while traveling and during the evenings.

Congratulations!!' On: (1) quitting smoking (2) your 1 year anniversary (3) your hexies quilt. Keep up ALL the hard work!

Two great accomplishments! Congrats on both...Your quilt is lovely and you will be able to enjoy it for much longer! Thanks for sharing it!

Good for you! Both things are beautiful!

I certainly do remember your other post and congratulate you again!!
Love the quilt.

Ditto.....................

Congrats on your anniversary. Love your quilt! Thanks for sharing your journey.

A lesson I learned before I quit the last time is that you can't ever have another cigarette. I had quit previously for a year at least twice, but I thought I could have "just one". I couldn't. For me, just one cigarette and I was hooked all over again.

It's been about 25 years and once or twice a year, I'd still like to have a cigarette. The thought of having to quit again keeps me on the straight and narrow, though.
