Hello, all. I am still here, it has been a hectic summer, we are on our third set of visitors & we went to WI. We have a family reunion the weekend after Labor Day & I have a quilt I am finishing for that then I will knock out all my blocks. Like bebe I work well under pressure!
I am chomping at the bit to get started on the blocks. Jo |

Grandmother's Cross is for mghrs...I only used 1 red...do you want me to do it over and add another? and Barbsbus's Pieced Star. Hope they are alright. Let me know if not Patti |

Oh my Barb that must be very difficult. Perhaps when you premake his meals you could put different things in different containers, for instance tupperware small rounds are soup, and rectangular glad has lazana? I know different kinds of containters "feel different" either in the type of the plastic or with the name imprinted on the top. I don't know what your collection of plastic looks like, though I just learned that while the deli select lunch meat has glad emblazed on the top, the Butterball slices have Butterball indented on the top. Would something like that help? |
Barb, we did the same with my sister in law.
We would put "tags" on the arches of her shoes that she could feel the difference and sameness with. Many times she would leave the house with mismatched shoes. Silly girl! :) She loves the Glad containers since they have an embossed seal on them and we had gone and bought her a braille embossing machine. Would make labels for her clothes and food for her. That worked wonders! She is a very independent woman and doesn't like to take help from anyone. Makes me mad at times. We would make recordings for her so she could remember where things were. I actually told her once that I wrote her a note and left it on her counter. If she needed "help", she could just go and read it. lol I thought I was going to be caned to death! So glad I'm the favorite sister in law! lmao |
My plan is to do 2 each month. Posted 2 for July & have the fabric picked for 2 for August but not started sewing yet. :roll:
