I finished the longarm quilting on my friend's quilt last night. In my opinion I think the clamshell design gave this quilt a nice texture. Chalk another one off my list. I'm guessing she will give me another when I drop this one off this weekend.
When I was creating this blog post last night I just realized that it was Friday the 13th today... The last Friday the 13th I remember was the last day that I worked as a substitute teacher (except for the two half days that I worked this school year for fun.) That was back on 3/13/2020 -- COVID-19 day... Now I have to get someone to hang out with Owen if I want to work. He doesn't get his school stuff done... It's a lot...
I have to admit I'm still trying to find my way of not working. I know I'm right where I need to be right now. I'm still processing that.

I think you are doing an awesome job. As I look back over your blog, I see so many things you did from gardening, biking, quilting, and keeping Mr.O hopping. I don't love the situation we are in, but the true us emerges. Kind of like you don't what kind of tea is in the bag until it sits a while in hot water.
The clam shell pattern certainly does do something for texture, doesn't it? Between working and being with Owen, I think you have made the right choice. Work will always be there....time to be with Owen as he matures is fleeting. I retired 2 years ago and have not missed going to work once yet! LOL...of course, I do miss my co-workers but after 50+ years of working I think I put in my time....
The quilt looks great!
Elf Family Quarantine? ROFL!!! I still haven't tried my Clamshell board. This quilt has convinced me that I need to give it a go... SOON, as your friend's quilt turned out GREAT, Kathy!!
