inspiration satisfied

this was the original article torn out of a magazine for this project....designed by darlene zimmerman who used flannels and wool (for centers) from october 2015...yikes, nearly 5 years ago???

and just this morning got all my rows sewn together....

it isn't really bed size, only 60x68, but will work for my mom who'll be the lucky recipient....just applique circles, then baste and quilt.  not bad for a project i couldn't give away....and now i'm glad it stayed.   ***  it's a lovely early spring day here, great weather for january....this kind of day doesn't arrive in new england until march.  the medication demons were mostly quiet this morning so got out to exercise early and back before lunch.  since working out at this new place that is fully paid by my supplement insurance, have made pretty good progress.  today i was able to last 10 minutes on the treadmill and then 20 more on the recumbent elliptical.  most days strengthening is included, but the 30 keeps cardioman happy.   it's so enjoyable that have to watch not to overdo that requires afternoon napping.  this gal has sewing to do!
