It's Been a Really Good Week!

I'm not sure why it has to fly by so darn fast, but it has been a really good week...Monday was my day with mom...she had several errands to run and then we went out to lunch...Tuesday I sewed a good bit and got a lot done on the second baby quilt for the new neighbor twins that are due to arrive in December...yesterday I spent the day with Lynda Hall of Primitive Pieces by Lynda, you can read all about what we did on her blog...today I finished the baby quilt......ready to go to the machine quilter.

Tomorrow I'll start working on Camden's quilt that will match her doll carriage quilt..I get to play with Bliss again...gosh I love that fabric. I'll keep you posted.

I was the very lucky recipient of one of Darlene's wonderful scissor fobs...sorry I don't have a picture...my battery pooped out. Darlene I love it...thank you so much.

Sounds like the perfect week! Love the baby quilt! The quilt you and Lynda made is really lovely too. After being prim for many years I sorta got away from it, but it's calling me back...
