Hey ... aren't you supposed to be off lollygagging around this weekend? (and not here!)
Not enough fingers

Yes, it must be trans-global!

And yes, I have. I was at my grandsons, we had a great time but my DIL was very tired and went to sleep on the couch, Mick was asleep in his bed and my son had to clean the house LOL so I went home.
Today I will be gone in the afternoon so some sewing time in the morning

That's going to be a lovely quilt. I also wish I could quilt for Mom.

Here's block # 2 Wyoming Valley. I won't say another word again about pictures, straight or not and weird angles
Picking fabrics for this block was hard but I'm happy with the result.

What lovely work to start the day Anael ... thank you!
That first one seems to glow and radiate out from the centre FC flower ... and yes, you did a magnificent job of fabric choice. I remember, some of the PC blocks, I felt as though I spent longer choosing fabrics than sewing!

Good plan ... get out of DS/DDILs before DS decided you should help clean house too!
What a perfect day today for you ... sewing in the morn and then a getaway in the afternoon. ENJOY all!!


PS ... not just raining here but pouring overnight and this morning!

I'm sitting here in total shock! My son called earlier this morning, they were on their way to the hospital as my DIL was bleeding last night. He just called back, they're going to have triplets............one was hiding behind the other two, that's why they didn't see it the first time. My DIL never wanted me to sew for my grandson, I think she will change her mind now! For now everything is well with all three of them, let's hope and pray it will stay this way!
I need lots of coffee now

What a delightful suprise!!!! There's no doubt in my mind that you will have such fun with triplets.
