Another season . . .

Summer is arriving as well as returning college students. I'm fetching one daughter from the airport this morning. It is kind of depressing, however, that our current economy doesn't insure there will be summer work for many students this year. Seems unfair that the government has already burdened our children's future with taxes but the economy is such they can't even find work easily now. I sure home the November elections bring in some politicians who have the interests of the people at heart and not their personal greeds and agendas.

Ahead of my supplies . . .

My favorite part of quilting is designing and piecing the top of the quilt. Right now, I have three quilt tops ready for quilting if ONLY I had remembered to purchase enough batting to fill my creations. Guess I will have to spend the day . . . designing another quilt top!

Mother's Day found me being treated to a trip to the fabric warehouse so I have a lot of new fabric and new ideas to work with.

I used to make quilts for the local pregnancy center but found out they are a bit prejudice towards Catholics in that they would not accept any quilts with Catholic motiffs,etc. Okay, I was fine with that but they also put out literature for their faith but do not allow any for Jewish or Catholic faiths. Seems to me that when a young girl is going through a crisis like this, the pregnancy center should have pastors/rabbis/ministers of ALL faiths to refer them to for counseling. This is not the time to get everyone born again.

Anyway, I've slowed down on making baby quilts for now but have the fun of storing all the BIGGER ones I make until Christmas and birthdays require a gift.
