I found some great fabric at the discount warehouse last visit there. I decided to take all the colors and incorporate them into a basic quilt using bars and squares of the fabric. I laid out the pieces, today, to see how it was coming along. I was happy to discover I had only five more to piece together today. Next time I get to sew, it is time to prepare the batting and backing for the quilt and then start the quilting process. That always takes the longest.
A place to share ideas on making a comfortable home. I do it through quilting, being faithful to my Faith, and caring for my family. Being a Catholic, sewing, and baking cookies are a few of my favorite things. I'm open to discussion!

From Fabric to Quilt . . .
I found some great fabric at the discount warehouse last visit there. I decided to take all the colors and incorporate them into a basic quilt using bars and squares of the fabric. I laid out the pieces, today, to see how it was coming along. I was happy to discover I had only five more to piece together today.

Reasonable assumptions . . .

the events of the day finds it difficult to concoct a situation so bizarre that
it may not actually come to pass while the article is still on the presses."

"Bureaucrats write memoranda both because they appear to be busy
when they are writing and because the memos, once written, immediately become
proof that they were busy."
