Maybe I'm Getting Back To My Crafts After All

 This morning I was up at 7:45 am to get moving. I had to go to the bank, another place, my sons, and then to moms before going to the grange for our BE meeting. 

When I arrived at moms, it was dark and the door was locked. I unlocked the door and went in looking for mom. I hate walking down a dark hall to see if mom's okay. I did and she was sleeping peacefully at 9:30 am. I decided to let her sleep and dropped off the quilts for her. Then I picked up the one quilt and my threads that she had for me. 

I headed over to the grange to find Cindy waiting in her car. She looked good but was a little emotional - UNDERSTANDABLE. I gave her a hug and then we went into the grange to work on our stuff. Sandy V arrived after us and then Sandy E arrived right after. We all sat an chatted. It was a good meeting because Cindy was quiet. But she did chat from time to time. 


I got the bench done. Then I quit. I need to see the photo to go on. The skin is a dark brown, so I want to make sure that's what it's supposed to be. 


Sandy V gave the group the extra floss she didn't need. So, it's a gallon bag! I brought it home and got started on putting them on the keepers. 

After putting 61 away, I still have this much more to go! It's a heck of a lot of work. I took a good 2 hours to get as many done as I did.


Came home and got to work on the labels. Finished another QOV quilt. 


I also finished this one as well. I have half of another one done. Then I have one more left for a label and 4 will go to the museum on Thursday. 

Debbie let me know her sister in law passed today. I also found out yesterday that Mary at the bowling alley passed on Saturday. I hope I don't hear of anyone else passing for awhile. 

My day turned out better than I thought it would. I was actually Happy Stitching/Happy Quilting!

Oh dear, what happened to Cindy?? I looked back and I did not see that you mentioned her lately. I feel like I know all your friends! So please repeat for us, I apologize for asking. And I hope you're feeling OK after your episode the other day. And sympathies on the deaths you mentioned. Being this old is rough when you start losing your friends. Anne
