I had a stack of fabrics to press before I could continue cutting 6.5" squares. I got 13 more cut with a pile waiting to go to the die cutter. There are 4 squares of each of most of these fabrics. There are 2 or 3 quilts in the future to use all of them. I will need 177 squares if I make all 3 quilts and I have 96 cut so far.
I'm also cutting 3" finished half square triangles for one of the quilts. Lots more strips are also waiting to be die cut for this group.
I lived on a dairy farm when I was little and we had 2 hired men at different times who could help with the milking and crops. I went to grade school with their kids. One of them was a girl named Rose Marie who was in first grade with me. Her brother passed earlier this year and I read in his obit that she lived in a town just 8 miles from me. I doubt she remembered me but I always thought she had a pretty name and I remembered her. Her obit was in the newspaper yesterday. That's the thing about being 84, a lot of old acquaintances are showing up in the newspaper, 3 in the last 5 weeks.

So true but you can remember them and that is a gift in and of itself. It’s fun watching your flower fabric piles grow.
