What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

This morning, I tried to sleep in. Patrick was up at his 7 am time. I was surprised he didn't sleep more, since he wasn't golfing today. 

I played on my tablet before we had to leave for moms. She had to go to Costco for her hearing aids. Patrick drove us up there. She had to do the hearing test before they could fit her with hearing aids. She didn't lose as much hearing as I thought she would. It took an hour. Patrick was out in the car. I found some pj's and let ...

Yesterday, mom turned 91. So, I went to Safeway this morning and picked up a cake for her. I thought there would be more at our meeting, but as it turned out, there was only three of us. Georgie, mom and myself. 

I took my beading. I also took some fabric for mom and Georgie to work with. They almost have one of the panel quilts done. Since mom had to go get her teeth cleaned at 11 am, Georgie and I chatted. I was able to get part of the next ornament done. 

I finished three of them there ...

This morning, we were up early. I couldn't believe how slow the day went. At least the morning seems to take forever to move. 

I worked on my cross stitch after getting some cleaning done. 

I worked on it for a while before it was time to go to moms. We took some fabric for the quilts her and Georgie were working on. I brought one home. We also took mom so flowers from the garden and 2 pots of flowers for her front door. She was happy to get them. We sat and talked to her for an ...

This morning, I wanted to sleep in but couldn't. 

Got up and played my war games for a bit and then got some laundry in. 

Once that was going, I listened to my audiobooks and watched a YouTube video on the 3D beaded star ornaments. I wanted to do another one or two.

I was able to get this done today. It took all afternoon, but it was fun to do. I have decided I will do more. I think my tree will look great with these. I may have to make a couple sets for my kids as ...

 This morning, I couldn't go back to sleep, so was up at 7 am. I woke around 4 am and kept waking up every few minutes. So, gave up after a while. 

I was enjoying the morning, by playing games when Patrick reminded me of the Zoom meeting with QOV state coordinator. Our President was also in the meeting. She talked about the changes and what to expect in the next year. I didn't realize it was her that became President of QOVF. She's with my old group in Olympia. She's also an attorney. So, we ...

This morning, I got busy and started laundry. I was happy to have today at home. I seem to be going places all the time lately. We were talked about all the appointments we have, and after next week, we don't have another one scheduled till June. That will be nice!

I played my games and then pulled out my beading to work on. 

 Today, we both slept in. Patrick wasn't feeling all that well, so stayed home from golfing. 

I played my games for a bit, then cleaned the house. Had a couple loads of laundry going and vacuumed the house. Amazing how much cat hair as well as my own hair that comes up in the vacuum cleaner. UGH

Then I played for an hour in the war games with my "alliance." 

Once I was done with that, I plugged my tablet in and looked for a beading ornament for this year. I started on a star one, but it was ...

Today, was one of those days where it poured! Rained all day! They are expecting flooding, so it's going to be interesting the next couple of days. 

I headed out to Georgie's house for embroidery. I pulled out my Round Robin piece out to work on. Yep, I forgot I had it and needed to finish it. 

Today, I wanted to get moving more on the ornaments. I also needed to get some laundry done, but I only had time for two loads. I did clean a few things that we always do on Sundays. 

Then it was 1:00 pm and I needed to get out the door. We thought we would be giving out a quilt at the WWII dinner. It was an awesome presentation! But, nope, we didn't have someone to give the quilt ...

This morning started out pretty good. When I finally got moving, Debbie asked me to go to Dutch Brothers for a drink. I said sure. So, we headed to DB before we worked on her quilt for her grandson. Came home, with a drink for Patrick and then headed downstairs to figure out what she needed for the quilt. 

Once she left, we had a few packages arriving. So, I think we are ready for the holidays now. 

Then I sat down at the table and finished the panel for the ornaments. Once that was done, I pulled out all ...

Patrick didn't go golfing today. So, it was nice to sleep till 8 am. 

Got up and then tried to get ready to go do what I needed to today. I left the house around 9:30 am. First to Safeway, then to moms. I stayed about an hour with mom. Put out her wreath on the door. Then put her supplies away that she bought from Costco. Once all that was done, I picked up one quilt from mom. 

Next stop was Colleens, and I spend about another hour there. We chatted a while. She gave me two ...

Today, I slept for a bit, just didn't want to get up, so I laid there awhile. It's interesting how I don't want to get out of bed but when I do, I feel better. 

I got moving on the laundry but that didn't go far today. I got on the computer and set up a new email for my QOV group. I was getting tired of trying to figure out what was personal and what was QOV. This way, I have it all in one place. I sent out 20 emails to let veterans know ...

Today, I was able to sleep a little bit, but was surprised Patrick was up since we usually sleep in on Saturdays. Not today. Even I didn't sleep as late as I usually do. 

I played my games, then Debbie came over to show me her quilt with her grandson's photos. It's really cool. Then I was back on the games. 

After supper I called mom again. When I tried earlier in the morning, she wasn't up. It took till 10:30 before she was up. She said she didn't sleep very well last night ...

Today, I was up early and out the door. I got breakfast and then headed to Walgreens for mom's meds. Then I picked up tea for both of us. They were sweet, they gave me a free drink for mom since they knew she has pneumonia. (I'm learning how to spell that, since I've typed it so much! lol) 

I stayed and chatted with mom, then I came home. I needed to get home since Phil was coming today. He arrived about an hour after I got home. It was a very nice visit. I tried to ...

This morning, I was all ready to go to the grange for the last time to visit with Gerilyn. About an hour before I needed to leave, she called to say she has strep throat. So, I ended up cancelling the meeting. She's looking forward to meeting at moms, and it will make it easier for her mother to join us as well. 

Since Patrick wasn't going golfing (would start till 10 am because of the cold weather) and I couldn't go to the meeting, we headed up to Olympia for our blood tests. I had to ...

We did the usual Sunday cleaning. Then we headed to the casino. We go the 8x8 electric fry pan. I don't know if I could use it and may ask Katt if she wants it. I was hoping for the crock pot, but that was the one I missed. lol 

We did pretty good but didn't stay as long as before. We weren't as lucky today as the last 2 times. 

Stopped at Arby's for supper. We hadn't been there in probably over a year. He wanted to go to see if the salt was ...

This morning, I was getting a few things ready for when Sandy E and her sister Jeannette were coming. As I was getting ready, Debbie wanted to know if I would be home, and mom called to see if I could take the bolt cardboard, she got from Debbie McGinnis yesterday. I said sure. 

So, first to show was Debbie and we talked about the quilt she wanted to make for the "therapy quilt" to give to her daughter. She has enough photos of her grandson to make a quilt for his brother as well. So, we chatted about what ...
