and hopefully it will soon be done. It is a 4-patch baby quilt, started sometime in the 80s, way too much handquilting for a baby quilt, and poly batting no less. You live and you learn. At any rate, I am determined to finish it and cross it off my UFO list. It has been good practice for handquilting, and will work nicely on the baby bed that DGs use when they come to visit. And if it gets messed up, no great loss. Hopefully I can get the handquilting finished this week and perhaps bind and label it this w/e. Then I can chalk it up as another finish!!
Had to miss my Hooking Group tonight because DH really needed me at home. He is a little better, but still can't bear weight. Tomorrow after I get off work, we will go for his MRI. We anticipate that it will be a torn meniscus and he will end up with arthroscopic surgery..........again.
DD#2 and DGD came over to eat dinner with us, as they were alone tonight. DGD is growing like a weed, pulling up on everything. She will be walking before we know it.
Thanks to all of you who are reading my Blog.......this is really more fun than I had ever expected. Thanks, too, for the compliments on the blended quilt...........it is a favorite for me. I have to admit, I did not chose the fabrics........it was a kit. But, it was perfect for my house. It is unusual to find fabrics that are just right in a kit, but this one was IT.
Off to handquilt!

What a sweet quilt. I know it will keep your grandbabies warm. Feel better wishes for hubby!
It will be a nice feeling of accomplishment when you are done. I want to hand quilt and may do a baby item as a first project. Keep plugging away!
Keep plugging away. It is surprising how all of a sudden you get there
