Well since I started this project I have made 144 hour glasses and 120 pinwheels. The only thing truely finished are the pinwheels. They are coasters for a church bruncheon. The two quilts .. The brown and pink one is big enough to over the top of a twin bed. Still trying to figure out how to quilt it on my sewing machine. The blue and yellow Starry Nights by Mary Graham I haven't made the time to think about. I still just love it though.

Coasters just a few of them.

I hope this puts out some fires burning around the upper part of my county. It's supposed to rain again tomorrow but I hope it holds off until the afternoon! Can't have it interfering with golf!

I'm glad to hear that some are still working or at least thinking about their pinwheels! Me too!

:-D

Grann: don't work too hard and not be able to use the baby!
:-D
Do you believe that I went to bed around 10:30 giving up on seeing the big arrival! I must have just missed it. Well, the room is done and ready for the new "baby". We'll have to think of a good name for him or her. I don't believe in naming babies till I have met them and find out their personality.
I was just about to head to bed when she went down but popped up again, then down again. I thought if she got up again I would be gone but she stayed down and got to work! LOL
I think the time was 11:05 or close to that.
What fun! She is adorable running around the stall.
:-D

They are both great! The shriners will love them for the children.
