Nothing New

I shared this on Facebook

posting here in case you missed it...

 

Mom was able to get her new quilt

on the bed last Wednesday

hand pieced by me,

machine quilted and hand bound by

Brenis Thompson

 

I promise to get a better pic of the quilt

our Pastor Kristen stopped by after lunch

and was the first to see it on the bed

here Mom was explaining about making quilts

and how much she loves her hooked rugs

so when I say nothing new

I mean I'm not working on anything new

more tackling of the old...

as in large stack of small quilts

"in progress" needing tackled

 

right now I'm working on my 1800 Vintage

like the one shown above

mine is in all medium golden brown and tan

looks very blah to me now

but I'm in a finishing mood...

 

patches being pieced into tops

tops being pressed and basted for quilting

making the bias bindings

 

it feels good to get the next step

done on different projects

nothing new with me and mom

some good days

some not so good days

 

I hurt my back a few weeks ago

rearranging furniture

had to take some time off work

sitting was painful, standing painful

pacing around was ok

 

doing much better now

the furniture is still clustered where I left it

waiting for someone else to move it!
