Busy Wednesday

Today I have a dentist appt., my son, Tristan, has an orthodontic appt., and my daughter, Shannon, has a riding lesson.  Usually no big deal, however, she doesn't have a ride from school to the barn.

My huband, Rick, and I went to Lancaster, PA on Saturday and what a beautiful day it was, temps were in the low 60's. Sunday was in the low 60's as well.  Then on Monday we had snow.

I have started cutting my other quilt blocks out. I have cut out Brasstown Star for 'b'.  Next is Calico Puzzle for  'c'.  I have ordered more accuquilt go dies to make it easier to cut the blocks out.  I am having a really hard time cutting them.

Hugs,

I have been looking online for a new house...seen a few possiblities.  There's no sense in looking until we de-clutter and fix the problems with this house.  Even though we are all in agreement in moving, no one seems to  want to do anything to reach that goal.  I can't do everything alone.

Starting again...

I started this last night and evidently it didn't post, oh well...it happens.

I am going to begin quilting after a few years of medical issues.  I am planning on making an ABC quilt.  However, if won't be an 'alphabet' quilt, but a quilt using blocks beginning withe each letter (ie:  Antique Tile; Brasstown Star; Calico Puzzle; Dutchman's Puzzle).  You get the idea.

I'm hoping to get all of the blocks made this year.  With two teenagers, 3 dogs, and the possibility of having more surgery on my shoulder (that I broke in Aug. 2010), AND the possibility of moving. That's why I'm giving myself a year to make the blocks
