    hi all... I was busy this weekend finding fabric and then cutting 192 squares!

    what do you think of the colors, patterns? this is a quilt for my sis for Christmas. It's a rag quilt which means the seams will be sewn up, sheared and then fringed... after it's washed and dryed... I will post a pic when it's done... but right now this is the stage I'm in... the laying out phase... well actually tonight I will start sewing, yipee!

    if you don't like sewing, you haven't found the right fabric

    That's a great quilt Chicago!

    Hooray LBTC & H!



    I'm in a cr*ppy mood. I'll spare you the details. I'm p*ssy and negative and hate everything right now.


    But on the "plus" side, - for a wool weenie anyhow - I just washed a load of delicates and now my whole house smells like wet wool.

    Very nice colors and arrangement, Chicago!
    Half-marathon over. Sabbatical year over. It's back to "sacking shirt and oat cakes" as they say here.

    Chicago - that's a beautiful, bright and cheerful quilt! Anyone would love to receive it!

    Oak - here's some butterflies to lift your mood. I'm hoping there's no basis for it so they'll just pick it up and fly all the bad stuff away.

    CC - Life is pretty good, I must say. other than a wierd knee.

    Hugs and butterflies all around,

    The butterflies are within you.

    Beautiful quilt- she will love it!

    Oak, I hope you feel better soon.

    It's been raining all day here, but it was around 50F degrees out, so I went for a 4 mile walk in the rain. Glad I did- my muscles, hip joints and legs feel good now. It's hard to find good weather days in the winter for walking and biking...gotta grab whatever comes up.

    Lucky sis, Chicago! I'd love to have something like that. I WANT to like sewing...so far in this lifetime, I've always hated it. So I especially appreciate stuff like your quilt.

I have loved and been loved;I have been given much and I have given something in return...Above all, I have been a sentient being, a thinking animal, on this beautiful planet, and that in itself has been an enormous privilege and an adventure."
