Janice, I am glad to hear that you are finally moving in! Before you know it you will start to settle in.
|
klaws, this part of the boom may be over but wait for all the beautiful flimsies that are going to be posted, too! and then all the quilting experiments to share. I guarantee that I will still be working on my president's quilt after the next boom starts so you'll be seeing posts from me in here for a long time.

Good morning! Three packages of blocks have come in so far to the new address. Everything is going well in the mailing department. This morning I found a little post office two miles away which will be very convenient when it comes to shipping your packages. Yay for small, happy things.
Yesterday was my first official time watching my granddaughter on my own for more than a few minutes. Her parents had business so they went off for 3 hours. Charlie wasn’t too happy with them leaving at first but within a short time, we were playing and having snacks and playing some more. What a pure delight! By the time they got home, it was clear she’d had a good afternoon with Granny. Hope you all have a good day. I’m off to work on the sewing room, disaster that it is. |
Yay for a good afternoon with Granny! Charlie will learn how special her Granny time is. I'm already imagining all kinds of activities with Ivy in the "city house" (Memphis). Cookie baking, playing with toys, and I want to put a swing set in the backyard. The house has a beautiful backyard with fabulous, thick grass that was put in and cared for by a landscaper that used to live across the street. So much fun is going to happen there! Even sewing, eventually!
Two of the ladies in my local charity quilting group decided to make bargello lap quilts to donate, and they asked me to join them. That will be my first bargello. We are using batiks and the pattern on the cover of the book "Twists and Turns Bargello Quilts". I'm excited about trying such a different project. They say it's easy! https://cdn.quiltingboard.com/images/smilies/eek.png |
Two more packages came in. Way to go, Zinnias! I’ll check where we are as far as who has sent what and get back with you tomorrow.
SBG, granny time must be just about the best thing ever. You’ll do great at the Bargello. It requires accuracy sewing your strips together and that’s right up your alley. Here comes the rain - again! |
In no particular order, the following people have shipped their blocks and they’ve been received:

Yay! One package I don't have to worry about anymore. I'm glad to hear that the post office is functioning to the east of me. Thank you, Janice. No hurry. We don't want to burn you out as we want you to continue to host :-) Hugs.
