Happy Birthday Debbie



Tonight we celebrated quilting buddy Debbie's birthday and presented her with her quilt. She seemed really pleased and surprised. And it was lots of fun to get to know some of my new quilting friends a little better. I have been asked to join their informal group, "The Pitifuls"....so named because when they first started quilting they were "so pitiful". Let me tell you, that is not the case anymore!
Today I made it part of the way through the Stashbusters WebRing. Looks like there are several new members and lots of really great stitching going on. Welcome, everyone. I haven't been on the WebRing very long, but there are lots of nice folks who encourage you with great feedback. Makes you want to finish lots of projects.......and start some more too :-)
I have decided to keep up with what I am doing each month.........this is the idea of someone else on the WebRing, I just can't remember who right now. Anyway, I thought it was a great idea. I think that it will help me to appreciate that I am making progress.
Today I spent my 15 minutes.........plus a tiny bit........and made some of the components for more of my Thangles blocks. Part of this I did while waiting for DH to finish getting ready for work this morning, and the rest tonight before going to the birthday celebration. Those few minutes really did amount to good progress.
Good night!!

A little bit every day adds up to a big something someday.

I really enjoy the times I spend with small quilting groups. We share, we laugh, we encourage each other, it's so heart warming.

Thanks for visiting my blog, I will come back often.

Your questions....does the Janome have stitch regulation. Don't think so but will ask. How many UFOs did I start with? I think it was only 12.
