Kite Girl is on the Frame

Kite Girl is being quilted this week using my Circle Lord Baptist Fan giant template board.  I'm using a tan thread that seems to look great with it and the tan backing.

I'm starting to run out of large pieces of fabric for the backs.  Somehow I misplaced my box of panels.  I see a lot of pieced backs in my future.  I'm at the point where the neutrals need to be seriously separated into specific categories... all one color of white/beige, fun neutrals, pastels, and so on.  Maybe the kid will do that for me this week.  LOL.  He does love sorting them when he is in the mood.  My last day is May 29th!  Come on summer vacation!!!!!


 Kite Girl started as part of one of my Rainbow Scrap Challenges (RSC) in 2014 (I think).  The block is made from 2" squares.  The block pattern can be found at Q is for Quilter blog.  I then started to learn to do the chain stitch for the kite strings and stems in May of 2017.  In enjoyed finding things that fit easily into my school bag that made me feel productive vs. doing cross stitch projects where I had to focus on counting and couldn't keep a good eye on students in study hall.  I randomly stitched kite strings with pieces of floss from my grandma's tin.

For some reason the blocks sat idol until I made the last one in orange in 2017.  But idol no more.  :)

Such a darling quilt and I love that you used floss from your grandma's tin for the kite strings.

I want to help people figure out what they have and what helped me to completely eradicate the Herpes virus infection.
I had unprotected sex and a few days later felt sick thinking I was just hungover. After spending a day at the beach I felt like I had severe sun exhaustion. For the next three days, I had a bad fever off and on. I noticed what I thought was a canker sore inside my lower lip. I started to suspect I had herpes.
I searched online and called different clinics and two days later I was in the midst of a full blown outbreak! Sores all over my labia and anus and mouth. I became very, very depressed and was even thinking of suicide.
I started to try everything I could find online. None of these remedies had any visible results.
Finally, I found a naturopathic doctor, who honestly told me I should contact Dr. Utu for my condition and recommended the herpes herbal cleanser.
I ordered the Herpes Herbal Cleanser through a DHL Express courier and started treatment
Within two days I started seeing good results with only one sore left on my genitals and my mouth was all healed.
I completed the herbal treatment under Dr Utu guidance and he asked me to go do a blood test which I curiously did
I got the results of my blood test and can't believe that I tested negative for HSV2 and negative for HSV1
People still cure herpes infection with herbal medicine and even other more deadly diseases with lifestyle changes and herbal medicine
While there are bad doctors and bad physicians in clinics and online, there are also the good ones and Dr Utu is one of the best.
Dr Utu can only be reached at
