A Tiny Break

Today I took a tiny break from my organizing and did a little slow stitching.
This hexagon was the result.
This is Sharon, one of the Glorious Hexagons from Month Three.

On the organizing front, I have finished five bins. I have pressed and folded everything greater than 1/8 yd. and cut up the rest. Neatly folded and sorted, I pared down to four bins. Next I am doing the Reproductions. Already, my 2 1/2" strip drawer is overflowing. I'd better be looking for a pattern.

A couple of days short of two weeks post heart transplant, friend Dave is out of ICU, all tubes and lines out. I think he looks great.

Christi and Rob celebrated 28 years as a couple...they started dating in HS.

Sometimes I am pretty sure I am the only one who cares, but it keeps me sane.
Take Care,
Jennie

  3. Good for you, stopping to stitch a minute. I'm sure you can finish organizing by the end of summer. Farmer's daughter block (country threads books) is a great one for 2-1/2" pieces.

  10. I am so very glad I found your blog today.
    It was meant to be. I was going to give up my sewing.
    But you are right with your post.
    I just want to make beautiful things even if no one cares.
    I am going to sew because I care.
    Thank you for your post.
