Sunday only project...........

Since I don't have any idea how I'm going to put this quilt together, I decided to just start making blocks with 8 strips.  This is 6 blocks placed randomly on the design wall.  Since it is a Sunday only project I hope I have some clarity by next Sunday.


On Saturday night's weather segment they were telling about some area in the southern part of IL that got 6" of snow.  This is our total, kind of like snow pellets.









The prediction is for Tuesday to have maybe an inch of accumulation.

Well, I have made it to another milestone, 82 today.  Now my goal is to reach 85 without any major health problems.

    You surely are more active than most at your age so I have not doubt you will reach your next goal. I'm thrilled I've lived longer than my parents and 80 is my next goal.

    Congratulations! How lucky you are to reach another milestone. So glad you are still creating. I woke up to a white world, here in NE South Dakota.

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY or as Little Man would say, “Felix Cumpleanos a tu”. (Your card is somewhere in the postal system …) We had our first heavy frost last night. There have been lots of “almost” nights but this one counts for the record keepers.

    Wishing you all the best on your special day and I also hope you reach your goal of 85 (& beyond). Just keep doing what you're doing and stay safe.
    Good thing you brought your plants indoors before that snow fall. We are still having milder weather for the time of year which I'm happy about. Thank you for all the lovely photo's and info you post daily - always a pleasure to read :)

    Happy Birthday! I hope your favorite cake or other desert in the plans somewhere along the way today.
    We had only flurries on Saturday - fine by me! However Tuesday we might get 1-2 inches, but hopefully most will melt as it falls?

    Happy birthday! I hope you make it even longer without any health issues! Snow fell here in NE Ohio on Saturday, but it was very light and didn't stick which was fine with me.

    I's wishing you a very Happy Birthday today Wanda, with many more healthy and happy years ahead. I've been doing my Christmas cookie baking the past couple of weeks and am almost finished. I'm not able to do more than 2 batches a day, and only a few days a week. Sure wish I had your energy. Happy Birthday hugs.
