finely I am sewing again

...how ever in a very disjointed manner, and i have to take the top left block apart...I obviously got it
wrong .  this is the 1st block in the civil war sampler
by barbara backman.  I am finely working on my Ohio crossing quilt once again.   Also decided to
work on the hearts and apron strings once again.
I am still missing the last rounds directions so,
I guess if they haven't surfaced by the time I get there I will design my own last round and end up having the quilt be my own adaption.  But at least I am once again sewing.

2 steps forward...3 backward

hmmmmmmmmmmm...its about time to turn that around.  sometimes my plans go haywire...that is my only excuse for the last couple of weeks.  on Monday I made a few small goals, today is friday and thanks to a stomach bug I sure haven't met them.  Most I haven't even started!  I feel much better today, so I hope I
will get some motavation to get moving! Like right NOW!  off to find the kitchen!

still working on the center medalion

I sure am glad I don't have to finish this quilt with a deadline...also glad that i don't feel rushed or pressured.  I am truely enjoying the process.

once the center medalion is done...the next blocks are smaller and should not take so much time. no promises tho.  i will probably work on the tiny berries as i work on the smaller blocks.

hope you have fun quilting, or what ever your intrest is this week

January 1, 2011

I don't believe it!  Where does the time go?  I have efectively lost over
a year and a half since my Larry died.  I have done some things...but, not all that I  planned to do.
I hope my goals will be reached this year and that I don't spend so much time just stareing into space!
it's time to get some order in my life, in my home, my yard and garden have all been neglected...its been
much harder than I expected.  2011 is when my goal is to find me!
