Sick Kid...

Looks like I'll be working on my little crib quilt that is an embroidery project.  Sick kid...

 
2 sick kids?  One big, one small?

 
False alarm.  The (husband) kid was just taking a nap...

Slow Sunday Stitching

I'm finally working on all the green leaves!  I think all the other floss colors are done.  We'll see as we go.  Every once in a while I find a missed spot.

Look -- I'm finally working on something!

I'm finally working on something.  I still haven't got my quilting mojo back.  The local schools have been keeping me busy.  IEP season... (Individual Education Plan--for students that need a little extra help in school), flu season (teachers have been out for a week at a time), meetings... busy, busy, busy.  It keeps things interesting for sure.

I'm super proud of my sister-in-law.  This week marked her third year of being sober.  She was an alcoholic for 30+ years.  I am in awe of her major accomplishment.  We prayed together.  She did the AA program.  Just like that, she did it!  Soooooooo proud!

She loves mug rugs for her coffee.  Here's one I'm working on for her.  The circle with the triangle in the center is the AA symbol.

 
Hopefully I'll have it finished for her tomorrow.

The last of the Brown?

I think I'm working on the last of the brown for the feet of the bear.  Woohoo!  I'm almost all done with the places where water spilled on my project and slightly erased the pre-printed design.  Whew.


Here I am waiting at the bus stop.  15 minutes here... 15 minutes there... It makes the waiting times seem to fly by.  This is one of my very happy places.  Who'd a thought I'd love so much hand work?

Slow Sunday Stitching
 
Linking up at Kathy's Quilts for Slow Sunday Stitching, 2/4/18.
 
Funny Kathy showed us a picture of her floss scraps.  I got my Ziploc bag from the drawer today and wondered what I should do with them.  I need to research some of the stitch mystery projects others have mentioned.
