I finished putting the border on my birthday blocks quilt today. I am washing the bleached muslin that I will use for the backing. I plan to load it on the frame as soon as it dries and I iron the fabric. Thank you to everyone for the great blocks. I love the quilt! I made a few more blocks so I could make it square (4X4 blocks). I plan to keep this at my house to use when our grandbaby comes to visit. He will be born in March 2012. Thanks again to everyone who made a block. Linda OH Here is a link that might be useful: Picture of quilt

Hi everyone! I am OK. Thank you for thinking of me, Things have been a bit crazy here. They sold the house and my DD and her girls are living here. The girls go with their dad to his girlfriend's house 3 days a week. (This is killing me.) Sami is in first grade and doing remote school. Today is their 12th anniversary. The divorce is still not final. I will be glad when that is over. I never thought I would say that, but the arguing is awful. I still have my sewing room but not as much time to sew. I have had a quilt on the frame that I started to quilt. (Bonnie Hunter's covid mystery) I need to finish that and move on. Yesterday I made four sewing machine blocks from MSQC. Jenny Doan made a video for this block. I am going to make sewing machine covers with my blocks. I have two old machines that don't have hard covers. They are sitting in my sewing room and I have been wanting to make covers for them. Take care and quilt! Linda OH

Currently planning to get this one in ARE’s holiday sale but not seeing really anything out there about it. Thoughts anyone? Thanks, Tina

Smoky all day, but no ash yet and not as bad as some other areas. I think the wind is supposed to change direction tomorrow (Tuesday) afternoon and blow from the west. Tonight is supposed to be pretty bad with gusts up to 40 mph. I told my one YL friend who is about a mile to the west of the evac. zone to come here at any time if she has to leave her house. She's already packed her car, so she can leave quickly. Glad you are away from danger, but I'm sure the air quality is horrible.
