I was surprised when I started looking at what I did get done. I am ready to work on Mountmellick and load Rosemary’s quilt. UNLESS I find someone to catch me up on the quilts! Hum maybe I will do that today!

There’s some big stuff crossed off that list.😊 This month will be better for you. I am looking forward to seeing what you do with the Texas quilt, that one is mostly embroidery isn’t it?

Yes and I found the panel for the State to change the pattern. The original pattern has sashings with stars and you and I know that won’t work like it should. Now I have to settle in and get the math going on what type of border to add before I can add the blocks…. That will be fun to do as I love math! Have a great day! Took the day off yesterday and did a day trip with Clay – it was fun!

Thank you! I am slowly getting caught up, but not as fast as I would like, but that is OK.

Yes, and it feels good – took a few days off – sometimes getting away from it helps.
