first off, this is UFO #2 done and still january! it's the 'waterfall' wall quilt...was given some large hexies but only a few were this blue print...i had the stripe on hand and then a fellow quilty peep sent the small piece for the binding. it is not the same print but hardly noticeable and it was just enough..nothing left over.
next in the hoop is 'detour to oz' that got basted just this morning. that's this week's must do project. one yard was used for the backing.
and this week got a second care package in the mail...like what's better in my mailbox??? fabric of course, but all lovely kaffe fassett fabrics...serious drool time here....already ideas are percolating...
this week it's back to mathemagical...should be a top before the end of the week, maybe even today! and another lap robe for the senior center...headed for vets' hospice of the chesapeake..after my personal experience with hospice, i am honored to do all i can for them and our veterans
as you can see the folding table is up again...for as long as i can tolerate, as it takes up nearly 1/4 of my entire living room. i've barely a path to walk thru now. there is basting ahead this week...i've 2 waiting and have pulled yardage for backings--one sewn already--these are the last 2 bed size quilts to baste. once they are basted i might pull out a puzzle. we have a nice library with tables for puzzles, but doing it here is more convenient and i don't have to get dressed! just right for those broken sleep nights too.
no, i won't be watching swearing in the bully-in-chief and i am trying to put the peanut gallery cabinet members out of my mind as well. as a christian, i know God is in control but i surely wonder how HE plans to keep America free and a bastion of democracy for the world. i envision there won't be much ahead except playground-level bickering and endless legal wrangling. perhaps this time will be spent preparing God's man for the next election? off the soapbox now...have a blessed day!
You have a very busy week mapped out. So good to already have a second UFO done and your next quilts look good. Squishy mail is always fun to receive. I’m sure you will be able to find plenty to distract you while the political shenanigans are going on this week.
ReplyDeleteLovely to see all your progressions and read of your plans. Hope all these lovely quilts and fabrics are keeping you warm.
ReplyDeleteYou certainly have enough to keep you busy! Temperature here is 5 degrees so I do believe I'll finish my tree and NO I won't be watching the swearing in either.
ReplyDeleteI figure that we'll see enough of the inauguration on the news summary this evening. How nice to have some Kaffe-infusion for your stash!
ReplyDeleteOh I enjoyed watching the happenings in Washington! I thought it was a moving ceremony with proper music and prayers! It gives me hope!!
ReplyDeleteGlad to see you’re keeping busy with your well-planned projects and staying warm and cozy at home. Sending you hugs~ ❤️
