Pictures From My Life- February 12


Here is the square I found in the attic boxes.  Twenty four inches square but could be smaller. The background fabric is back side up.  I think Jude Hill said "fabric comes with two sides" so I often flip it over and use the second side.  I found more of one of the pinks.  And the mini black print.  I have yards of the two sided background print. The rest is just not here.  So my choices--are to just back it and quilt it as a square.  Or........... Make different stars.  I'm considering it.  What I do NOT want to do is go shopping.  But if I continue, I am going to need brown.  I really like this piece because it shows that I DID know how to sew small pieces together to make larger pieces.

Today a Coffee Date with a friend.  A good thing.

I also re-potted several little orphan plants that have been collecting here (G wants to know how they get into the house).  Fresh soil, new larger pots so they can wiggle their roots around.  Get comfortable. Stay awhile.

The nerve in my shoulder is giving some twinges--I don't want that nerve pain to come back.  And my jaw is making noises again and making it difficult to chew hard things.  Like crusty bread--which I love.  So--while I sit here I am flexing my shoulder and jaw to keep everything loose.

Sewed a button back on my sweater.  Not much else so far today.  After coffee I will walk over to the library and see if I can find a book to read.  Hopefully the sidewalks will be cleaned off. If I can't find a book--I did find an unfinished turned edge appliqué project.  Now that  I have my new glasses-it is possible to SEE the turned edge.  So could work on that a few hours a day.  Show it to you soon.
