My husband told me to do nothing but work on my quilting today !!! What a hard thing for me to do, all day.........

I do have my daughters working on their schoolwork, but I am to worry about nothing else but quilting. My next class is a week from today and he wants me to be all caught up and ready to go. I also have a few other projects that are going unfinshed. SO I have alot to keeo me busy for the day.

My van is in the shop once again. So I can not go to town for anything and nothing else needs done around the house. The girls are working on their own laundry so as long as I rmember to cook supper, I am good to go with quilting all day.

Here is a pic of the whole quilt we are making in our class. It is from Thimbleberries company and it is called their "block of month" club. I am really enjoying the class time and I can not wait for the quilt to be finshed. We are working on block #3 this next week.

So far, we have made the (1) double hearts square(top corner), (2) the green start square(lower corner) and this next week we start (3) the two house square. So far everything is being made from triangles. To look at you would think it had other shapes sewn together, but it is only triangles!! I never knew that you could do so much with triangle pieces. I am loving this quilt !!

Well, I have got to get busy, I have alot of sewing to do.

Thanks so much for your wise comment on my blog. Patti and I had discussed the issue and I told her I would blog about it and invited her to comment, which she did. I hope you will come back and read her comment too. It's a good one.
Your quilt must be gorgeous. Currently I am helping my daughter, a beginning sewer, finish two dresses. The patterns she bought were marked "easy", but they're really not. We're both learning as we complete the projects.
I hope we'll converse again soon. Blessings from the Big Sky Country.........Denise (prairiemom)
