Gratitude 21

 

You cannot do a kindness to soon, because you never know how soon will be too late.

Gratitude 20 and I have a crumb problem

and now... my Crumb problem

Remember this weekend I decided it was high time to sort the scrap bin - and look at this HUGE pile of reds - I have started in - I started 15 blocks, but I have a feeling that when I get to the strips - I may be able to make even more.... oh boy....

Gratitude 18 and Crumb Blocks

 

Opening your eyes to more of the world around you can deeply enhance your gratitude. 

This was in Rocky Mountain National Park, after a great hike - and those are my husbands feet, He was threatening to throw me in so I took out my camera so he would remember he didn't want to replace it.

I got a wild idea... I have a scrap box at the side of my sewing table. For some reason I decided it was time to sort it. I think It might have had to do with the fact that my husband wanted to move some panels.... and I didn't want to - so I had to look busy.

I found enough Greens or greenish looking fabrics to make 14 -  8 1/2 inch crumb blocks!!

and then I saw a stack of things in a cubby.  Note to self - NEVER LOOK IN THE CUBBY!

I have more orphan blocks...

Happy Monday!

Gratitude 17

 

Develop an Attitude of Gratitude, and give thanks for everything that happens to you, knowing that every step forward is a step towards achieving something bigger and better than your current situation.

This was one of my favorite hikes in the Rockies.

and also - I am really bad at knowing dates, My life is more like to-so lists - so number these posts is really making my brain work hard

Gratitude is the sign of Noble Souls - Aesop

Photo taken in Indiana 

On to my Finish!!!

I got this little Framed 9 patch quilted up and bound!! 

I feel like on a bit of a *clean out* mission. Making sure that things I have laying around are getting finished, and Hopefully out into the world.  I used a really fluffy flannel on the back.

That being said - I do a TON of QOV's. I take a TON to Hospice, I have some listed for sale on my Etsy site.. what are some other options? suggestions? 

And of course - I try to label them all, at least with my first name and state.....

Don't forget to label your quilts  - I like using this pen, it does not wash out ;-)

Gratitude 13 and Hats

 

Things you can give and still keep are: your word, a smile, and a Grateful Heart

You might remember a few years ago my friend M reached out to see if she could find some people to help her knit hats?  Well - you know crafters know crafters who know even more crafters. And these are three that I know - they made 300 hats this year!!!  ( I made 25) So I was SO impressed and SO Grateful!! These will go to fill Operation Shoebox boxes.   I am so tickled,

Two of them knit them, and 1 Looms them like I do:
