My new front door

Well good early morning all! Yes, I am finally back. This moving, even though just a few blocks, has truly been physically and emotionally taxing on me. My daughter and her husband moved the heavy stuff, and I got the rest. Since losing my only sibling seven months ago, everything was left to me to decide what to keep. Pressure for sure. Here is my new front door. Of course it incorporates quilting. 'Remember the Tucker quilt along from Pam at Heartspun Quilts Blog a few years ago? This is that little quilt. The door is inside in a secure hallway. We have to have chip cards to even enter this building, so it is ultra safe here. No one who does not live here can enter without a tenant coming downstairs and letting them inside.

I want to sincerely apologize for having to drop out of the recent Color It Red Blog Hop. I did email Carol ahead of time, and am so disappointed that my two projects just were not finished in time. It also took a whole day for me to set-up internet and TV here, which did save the cost of hiring it done. As soon as possible, I will post those two projects for all to see anyway. Thank you all for staying beside me and as always for all of the sweet comments.

Happy Valentine's Day 2020

Happy Valentine's Day to everyone! 'Almost forgot that it is today. This is a hearts fabric quilted tablet case I made for my granddaughter back in 2016. Looking back, 'should have made a webbed carrying strap. Maybe they can bring it back and I can sew one on while they visit. Granddaughter loves hot pink, so she does love this case. I am so far behind on sewing and quilting... Hoping to get back on track in March. About all that has been done lately is my projects for the upcoming Color It Red Blog Hop hosted by Just Let Me Quilt. Stay tuned for that event to begin on the 17th February. 'Got some red items that you'll want to see. Blessings.

Camden Road Quilt Along: week 1

Hello friends. Yes, I have been absent for a while now. A lot is going on here since mother's passing. Finally, I have completed two blocks for the Camden Road Quilt Along hosted by: Meadow Mist Designs and Hyacinth Quilt Designs. This will be the baby-size quilt, and mine is going to be scrappy. It is not too late to join in on the fun.
