Wednesday Wanderings

Well, I have cleaned and sorted 3 more boxes that were just thrown into the sewing closet, by someone other than me. I found in there seven baby quilt panels and backings, a box of computer stuff that really goes in the file cabinet, and a bag of panels that I donated. So I purged 3 boxes down to one. I also designated my Mckeena Ryan wallhangings to be thrown to a fellow stashbuster when we finish up the 2 1/2" strip swap. She loves batiks and will be surprised! I really haven't got the batik bug yet. I like them but I am more of a traditional, 30's Aunt Grace kid of quilter. I decided to put the Project that I was in search of fabric for, back in the bag and let it age some more. Who knows when that fabric will shop up!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LINDA! We went to a birthday party last night for a dear friend. We ate the most wonderful seafood at Crab Inn, near Rockport. Linda has accepted me with open arms into their loving family. There was a time for several months when I lived down here by myself with no family or friends, except Linda and John. And believe me, it was pretty rough at times!They are true angels in my book. They are actually friends of Eddie's and he knows them because they own the hotel that Eddie used to stay at 3 or 4 times a year when he came down for fishing. Now we live here, so we can still be friends and enjoy their company.

Oh, almost forgot! There is a quilt show in Victoria this Friday and Saturday. I had planned on being in Victoria anyway on Friday, so I guess I will hit the quilt show and get a punch of energy!

Does anyone every give projects away before they are completed? Just wondering!

Oooooh . . . a quilt show. I can't resist a quilt show.

I have given away a couple projects that I didn't finish. Go ahead and do it. There are no quilt police to tell you not to do it.

Thank God for friends that help us through rough times.
