Veterans Quilt


Hi friends!
Working on the veterans quilt again.
Finally figured out that row and added.
Though about adding this to it but changed my mind.
Like the row of little  stars better!
Had enough to add a row on both ends of the row. so it worked out measuring wise just fine.
But I need at least enough stars to make another row to add after all these. Want be long enough with what I have sewed already. Want it long enough to hang off the bottom and cover the pillows.
Got the next row pinned and it was time to cook supper.
Stay safe

Quilting is a life saver! Not going much and trying to stay safe means staying at home more.

Hi friends!
I have been doing this when I just want to get things done! Cutting up scraps! Filling up these candy buckets.
Just making nine patch's!
Trying to just have yardage on my shelves! When I look for something all I find is scraps! So hoping this will help to find things. Plus I can make these cute nine patch's when ever I want.
The rain and wind had beat thees down to the ground!
All it does now is rain, the grass doesn't have a chance to get dry. Every day it comes a frog choker!
We had enough dry days for Tommy to plant the garden a while back but lately he can't get in there to do any thing. When it rains like this the tomato's bust and are watery.

Jessie Pillow Shams


Hi friends!
 How do you like my straight cutting?
I will trim on my cutting table now that I have the pieces kind of cut in smaller sizes.
Trying to figure how just how I want these.

Storms came through yesterday and I unplugged every thing until this morning. Looks like some are on their way for today to.  Our garden is going to wash away!

Our Weekend


Hi friends!
Ordered these because it looks like we will need them for a long time! I have made a bunch but these feel best on your face for having to wear it for a while. They say none of these will stop it but you have to breathe.
Worked on the veterans quilt over the weekend.
Got these Sat. in the mail, though the part for my featherweight might help with the  skip. It's just every once in a while.
So far so good, but I have just sewed over  a few scraps . The other was thread.
Stay safe

Yesterday


Hi friends!
Yesterday was some day!!!!
 Tommy had to have a colonoscopy but as soon as we got the paper work filled out I had to give them my tele- number and go wait in the car. My car wasn't in the right place so I moved it near the door where he would be brought out, rolled my windows down and turned it off because it was about a two hour wait.
When they called to say he was fine and would be out in about 20 minutes I thought I would turn on the air, but nothing , wouldn't crank at all!
Waited till they brought him out because sometimes my key want work but still nothing! So we had to call for a jump off!  Cost us 50 dollars!
Took us two more hours before we got home!
Neither one of us had eaten anything so we were tired , hungry and in a bad mood!
Marshalls Dry Goods had a sale . 25 yards of white on sale and since I bought a lot I ordered the 25 yards.
Should last me a long time.
Stay Safe
