Way to go, Rob!
I did work on the UFO on my design wall. I sewed 2 sections together. Wahoo. I have an idea for making it bigger but that will probably happen later in the week.
My grandson made his appearance today. I’m so excited to be a grandma. He will have a unique birthday date with it being 02/02/2020. He was born at 2:12 pm. Lots of 2’s in his birth history. I won’t be posting any pictures per my son and DILs wishes. He was 13 days early but weighed in at 7 lbs, 10 oz and is 20” long. He was wrapped in many layers when I held him so I wasn’t going to unwrap him to check out his toes and fingers, That can happen later this week, 😊

What a very cool birthday to have. It’s a palindrome date (same backwards as forward). I am hoping our last baby had come on 02/02/02 and his graduation year is 2020. But he came on Valentine’s Day. Now I’m hoping our grandson comes 8 days early —02/20/2020.
Again let me say congratulations and welcome to the grammy club. There’s no joy like it!!

Very nice Rob. and the quilting is very ambitious, but is great.
Well, i am very excited to say that i completed my pineapple blocks yesterday, 30 in all. I decided to put sashing and cornerstones to add a secondary block look to it. All I have to do now is sew all the rows together and get it ready to quilt. So it should be done this week. i will be so thrrilled to have the pineapple blocks out of the UFO bins and into the "finished' stack. And this will help towards the stash busting, too, since I will need a few yards for backing. Since the blocks are all solid primary colors it should be easy to find some print for the backing.
