Daily Notes- February 23rd


To be or not to be.  I selected a few fabrics churned up by the Magic Attic for a possible baby quilt.  I know these don't look like "baby" fabrics but it's what I have to work with.  Unless I make another Depression Era print quilt.  Most of that fabric is pink, baby blue and yellow.  And not that interesting to Moms in this current generation--gray seems to be a color they like..   I really like that fabric on the far right.  End of a bolt at JoAnn's one day early in Winter.  Modern Quilt Looking. Easy on the eyes with an abundance of pale yellow and gray.  Time will tell.  Nothing is cut yet.

Sunshine again today.  Yesterday was warmer and G and I managed a drive out to the library to pick up books I had reserved (lots), the post office looking for "green stamps" (meaning stamps that had the color green on them for St Patrick's Day as I decided since stamps are "forever" to color code them to the major holidays when paying bills--but no green stamps ), and then the grocery store for soft things for me to eat while my jaw works around the temporary lock down.  I got bags of baby green peas to eat with steamed white rice.  Colorful and soft.  I also bought another pint of Panera broccoli soup.  To which I will add a handful of steamed carrot slices.  I might add carrots to the steamed rice as well.  I might make jello. Pudding would be nice as well but I didn't buy any hoping things are going to go back to normal soon and pudding isn't that great.  Ice cream would be better.  But so cold.

Well, I think I better cook my breakfast cereal while it's still breakfast time.  I'm writing to you early this morning, which isn't usual, but I have no idea how the day will go.  Stay warm.

In my group, those fabrics would be baby fabrics, should you want to do that. Our quilts tend toward the bright/modern/arty side. And we've heard that they are the first ones that the nurses go for.

You could get those little pudding cups the kids have in lunch boxes. Small, only a few in the pack, already made.
