I made this for my sister. It is for her first great-granddaughter.

I just finished this quilt for a coworker’s granddaughter. Simple, but soft & cuddly.

So I needed some plain black fabric to put a narrow border on a quilt. I have a lot of scraps, so I endeavored to use some of them. I can’t believe how many different shades of black I have! I finally found enough to use.

I used to follow a quilting group on BlueSky, but it’s disappeared from my feed. Any ideas where it might have gone?

I went to the doctor (gastroenterologist) today. They did bloodwork. Tonight I got a call from the on call gastroenterologist. I was told to go to the ER because my potassium levels were about 1/2 of what they should be. So here I am, probably all night, getting an IV with potassium & magnesium.

I can’t get to a No Kings protest today. But I put out my flag, and hung this in my window.

I always have movies running while I’m piecing & quilting. I like movies on series like LOTR, Indiana Jones, etc. So I tried the Twilight movies. I’ve seen them before. I apologize to everyone that loves them. They have got to be the dumbest movies ever. I couldn’t get through the 2nd one.

Construction mode. Yesterday and today, I have pieced five quilt tops, and I have three more to go. Then, the quilting begins—all hand-quilting. Christmas for the grandkids.

This is my grandson and I holding the quilt that I made him from his baseball jerseys. He graduates from HS this week. I’m very proud of him.

I’m puzzled. I made a makeup purchase today. It included a free face serum. The box says use as directed— there are no directions. Maybe I’m supposed to use telepathy from the makers? Hmmm

I just got this on the frames. It’s my grandson’s baseball shirts. He graduates from high school this year.

Is anyone really sure that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is still alive? Has anyone talked to or seen him since he got to El Salvador? Why wouldn’t the VP of El Salvador let Senator Hollen see or speak to him?

I’ve been listening to the coverage of the Blue Origin space flight. I think it’s cool that the “crew” were all women. But I can’t help but think how many homeless & starving people could have been helped right here on earth with the money spent for a fifteen minute flight.

You know, I almost felt sorry for the A’s last night. But it was so much fun to watch the Cubs blow up the scoreboard. 18-3. 💙💙💙⚾️⚾️⚾️

I’m gonna need help. My daughter-in-law is bringing me all of my grandson’s old baseball jerseys to make a quilt. I’ve never done one of these before. Where do I start??

I grew up in a small town. Back in the day, the ladies would get together & quilt. This is a block from a “Friendship” quilt. It’s the block my grandmother made. The date was June 4th, 1924.

How did we end up with two such vile people heading our country? I’m so disgusted by them. If WWIII comes, it will be because of tRump & Putin, not Zelensky. tRump & Vance are the disrespectful ones.
