Here is a pic a few weeks ago, Hubby and I were going out on a date for the first time since December. And I don't know why it puts them in sideways, they are the correct direction when I load them.

BIG FAVOR TO ASK! Could yall look at the followng link and tell me which quilt to make, I am a beginner/novice quilter. One of my husband's coworkers is from Mexico and they are having a baby boy this June. I have been looking for something that speaks of their heritage and then I found these books with the quilt that goes with it. Please advise, thank you in advance!!!!!!

I like the tamale one it's a double T block. You wouldn't have to buy the pattern just google it for a free pattern and make any number of blocks you want, depending on how big you want to make it. Then just sew the blocks together, put a sashing on it, bind it and you're done. If you make 12" finished blocks, 3 across and 4 down,12 total you'll have a quilt 36X48 the add sashing , plenty large enough for a baby quilt.

I too, am loving the sneak peeks of the projects. Also, thanks for a pic of you sykesjj....even if you are sideways still pretty. The countdown is on for us. Hurray. Glad to know everyone is clicking along and will be fun to see what we all receive. I have not been able to get IE to connect to internet today. Hope it is only them working on something and nothing wrong with my computer. We are right in the middle of genealogy and don't want to have to transfer files, let alone buy a new computer. Happy project completion to everyone.

Whew! We don't want to talk about countdowns for another week or so yet, lol. I'll be inboxing anyone I haven't touched base with lately over the weekend. So, if you haven't posted a progress report or emailed me lately, now's the time!
I thought I was going to have to go work on one of my bookkeeping jobs this weekend, but I can't get hold of him, so this may turn out to be a quilting weekend! I'm 2 steps from putting together Nancia's runner for Anastasia's swap, which I plan to finish either tonight or in the morning. I totally forgot to order my labels after Christmas, so I gotta get on that this weekend too. I may have them in time for this swap, but probably not in time for Nancia's runner's due date. Customlabels4u.com seems to have a decent deal, so we'll see. I'll get on it tomorrow.

I'm back! long few past days but here I am. Lovely hair do's ladies and for those of us who live life sideways love the pic too so young looking all of you. My description of my now not so ash blonde more dead field mouse color if you asked me with skunk streaking in the front middle. stunning I know. I have so missed sewing havent done it since Monday and when I get enough sleep in I will take it up again maybe by Sunday. nap and I need a nap I think right now but all went well with the angioplasty and I should be able to rock and roll like normal TADA!
I hope you all missed me tremendously and are so thrilled to know trouble is back in town. Nancia I think one is never too old for feathers or colored strips or peace signs if they like them. I am a fashion palate in my flannel plaid shirts and sweat pants and little leather loafers. I say knock em dead in whatever brings you joy. I find joy watching everyone else peacock up.
I hear Tracibug was planning on helping me out on getting home. Traci, thank you for such kind thoughts and willingness to assist a friend in need. I so much appreciate your sweet kindness. I drove there, wore out, did my hospital thing then dialysis wore me out, took one day to try to recover ha, then drove my weary rear end home. for those who are not in the know it is a three hour drive and I dont usually drive more than the four miles up the hill. so bay area traffic hell and me, when 80 is not good enough I say have at it. I am not playing this game yikes. getting old at 51 I guess. we have two lanes here on our highway. no stop lights in town. just not like it down there at all. dont miss it slightly.
