Just Tell Friday

When AmyLouWho started the Friday Sew and Tell, I joined in to keep me honest - and somewhat organized in the order of finishes.  This week, I have to just tell... registering a car means visits to numerous offices for stamps and papers and expenditures.  But I did have projects on the docket...

I didn't finish sandwiching and quilting Picnic - started to rush and cut the backing too small...

I did not finish piecing Madeline...

And I didn't start a wall hanging for my mother's 85th birthday.  This pile of fabric represents the colors of the 20s, 50s, 80s, and 2000+, will be turned into stars of various sizes from large at the top for Mother, medium for her 5 children, smaller for her 6 grandchildren, and 3 for the great-grandsons.

I just organized my Sunday.

I am off to Hartford Stage this evening for the Gee's Bend play http://www.courant.com/entertainment/arts/hc-geesbendrev.art.artjan22,0,7932596.story.. will share about it tomorrow.

Have a great day.

  5. Your picnic quilt is so pretty, look forward to seeeing it all finished. Love the idea for your Mother's quilt with all the different size stars. It's hard to fit everything in some weeks!

  7. But when you do do all these things, they will be wonderful. Good for you not to feel guilty or stressed (I hope).
