Center #4 seemed to be the favorite in yesterday's comments. I haven't made a final decision but I think it will be the one.
I took this photo as a reference because I need to start sewing blocks. I have to move 2 sets of 8" blocks to the left on the design wall so I can get the rest of the layout up there.
I have sewn all of the blocks in the first 2 columns and the top 2 blocks in the 3rd column. Today I'll start moving pieces to the left. I cut lots ... read more


I returned yesterday from my quilting cruise, and I had a great time. I do one or two each year, and this one may have been the best one yet. We left Saturday from Galveston.
Goodbye Galveston!
Our first stop was Costa Maya, Mexico, and I didn’t even leave the ship! I did get up early every morning and walk on the top deck and work out in the gym
It’s not difficult to get plenty of exercise, between the jogging track and the gym, and the views are very motivating.We had a conference room for sewing ...

This morning, I went walking with Ron. He's slipping fast. I got mad at him when he was telling me about his middle son. I guess he's been showing up and taking over for him. He's not letting Ron have any say on what he wants. I told him he need to go to Vancouver to be with his oldest son who has the control. I'm afraid the middle son will have him sign something he shouldn't, and it will take away the control his older son has. The middle son is a sneak and ...

read moreHi Quilters!
Welcome to week 5 of the Summer Jubilee Sew Along!
We are almost to the finish line. By now, you have made all of the blocks, and now it is time to assemble your quilt top!
