Nothing new today

Yesterday my mother had her legs rewrapped and she will be wearing the surgical shoes for a couple weeks so I am doing their grocery shopping for them today. She has said many times that maybe she is done shopping and someone else should take over. Then she changed her mind every time and decided no one else could DO IT RIGHT. She has set me up for failure but I refuse to accept that and I WILL do it right.

This is one of the pieces from the "to be finished" box. It is leftovers from 3 different Strips that Sizzle quilts. I will make it into a baby quilt to give away. Right now though I have to get busy and finish some things to send to the gallery in Southern IL by April 1.
The sun is shining again today and we will be above freezing. Tomorrow sounds even better.

  3. You call your post "Nothing New" but it's new and exciting for those of us who read your blog! I learn so much about color and value from looking at your quilts. This is just wonderful.

  6. I love the squares with depth inviting us to take a closer look inside each. It has great charm and will make a lovely baby quilt.

    You have created another gem ~ from pastels to the deep jewel tones in this one.

  9. Wanda, the comment above says "Your blog is very beautiful!" "Ciaou, ciaou" is either "goodbye" or "hello" or maybe "Hi!". (My Italian isn't all that great.)

  11. quiltking, I usually just ditch quilt something like this. I might add some meandering, but don't usually make that decision until I am basting.
