My cousin Tara and my Godson Koi (the shark lover) got me these cool metal quilt blocks for Christmas. She has two more waiting for me in Wisconsin! I love them!
We took an unplanned trip to New Mexico to rescue Coleman and his girlfriend (Randy's daughter) Heather and her six kids when their van blew a tire (and another one after we got there) and he went into Diabetic Ketoacidosis. Was not a fun trip, I missed work and footed the entire unexpected bill. Sigh. The things we do for our kids. I am now dubbed Instagrammy and these kids are a delight. Things have been crazy around here! Randy lives down the street so they are staying there at the moment but we see them plenty.
I added a ladybug onto Garden Party where there was a little hole (seam must not have been a quarter inch!). Bonnie will be here Thursday so I can show it to her! I have another tiny spot to cover and a bee to add, but Stash Kitty decided to bat the bee around someplace where I cannot find it!
Do you see hospital gown fabric? Figured I might as well commemorate the three days we spent in Santa Rosa at the hospital with Coleman.
I was behind on the clue since I was out of town...caught up on five.
Cut six.
And last night finished sewing six, though I did not take off the triangles/dog ears that hang off. I also cut my yellow squares since the final reveal is out! I still have the last set of hour glasses to make in the other colorway but here is sort of what the block looks like. I even missed the linky since I had no progress to report and was out of town. First one ever I think!
Hoping to get more time to work on it this week, but Thursday Bonnie will be here and I am in the Midnight Flight class. I am all prepped for that since I did it ahead of time. I have six boxes of books and rulers in my trunk for Bonnie too!
I have been working like a mad woman since we were out of town and video relay interpreting is so brain/mind numbing after a certain point. I come home and crash. We did trade in my Veloster since it made me carsick, was awful on the bumps and too small. We got this 2017 Toyota Camry. I am in love with it. So much more room and a great ride. Off to take a hot bath since I have another ten hour workday tomorrow. Oy!
