just relax
Thoughts: The time to relax is when you don't have time for it.

One of my favorite spots to relax is in the rocking chair next to the window. I always leave a hand sewing project sitting there to give me incentive to complete whatever needs to be done and then take some time out my day and just relax. Even if it's just for a few minutes.


Things: One of project in the works is a christmas quilt for my table. It has 4 large blocks with needle turned baskets. I will show you the results, hopefully sooner than later.



Some of the fabrics used in the quilt.

  2. Pretty fabric for your new quilt that you are working on. I was at a Quilt show today with another blog gal. Yes, me the one who can only bake and can't thread a needle:) It was totally awesome! I took so many photos and so did Sue. I will probably post about it next week. I kept thinking that if you were there you would go nuts. Pretty hard to just pick out one I liked as they were all so different in color and style. Still I would not even attempt to quilt myself:)

  3. That looks like a comfy chair to relax in. Good light too. The older I get the more light I need! In your last post you said doing the laundry is a blessing. It really made me stop and think about the things I complain about. I take so much for granted. When you can't do simple things and you really want to it does become a blessing when you can do them. A great lesson to learn. Glad you are able to do everything now. Mimi
