Day 222, August 10. 2013

 
My Aunt Treba asked me to join in with her
Quilt "Swapping" Group.
Earlier in the year we swapped
half square triangles.
I had them hanging around and had yet
to decide exactly what I was going to
do with all these little squares.  One of
the other "swappers" posted a photo of
a quilt top she made with her hst, so I used
her quilt top as inspiration
 and here is my process.  First,
I found matching colors and then
went on to make shapes.

 
Laid them out on the dining room
table and moved them around...
 

Finally, coming up with a pattern
that I liked.  Then had to stack all the blocks.
Ready to sew...

Lucky Langer
Remembering you on your birthday.
I love you!

A wonderful boy!
 
David has a very busy summer schedule,
but took time to help me with a few
things on my to-do list.
First, replace weather stripping...

Like new...

He helped me organize the
cupboards that are hard for
me to reach!


Also, put peel and stick tiles
on the work bench in the garage!
Thank you David!
