Cloudy, Cold Morning here in Maine. 22 degrees on Friday the 31st of January.


 Another square.  I have to get back into hand sewing pieces together....but first need to find something to watch on TV during the daylight hours (when I sew) that is NOT NEWS..  The top edge was the edge that needed a second patched together border.... it looks okay (dips a bit in the center).  Does the darkness suggest my feelings?????  I believe- somewhere - there are more 3 inch center squares- aching for borders and a starring role.  I recall sewing more of these 3 inch 9 patches while watching Law and Order with my Dog.  Years Ago.

After I hit publish I might find this image has already been on a post????  

The problems I find--using only three inch blocks as centers...finding fabric that plays well with the old stuff...old stuff I may no longer have?????  No longer can find?????  In the TUBS????

I finished Once Persuaded, Twice Shy and am now in the midst of Jane and Edward.- same author, Melodie Edwards.  This happens- that a book I had trouble reading before... now just seems to skip forward effortlessly.  Is it me?  Is it re-reading a book?  I ordered Jane from another library... Jane and the Rockstar.  Jane Eyre.  I might go looking for other books titled with the word Jane. Or other authors using Jane as a lead character.   Jane by Lindner...I need to buy this book.

When it arrives I will go to the local bookstore and ask the nice old man to order me a copy. He'll read the blurb and roll his eyes.....  Daughter will drive....and we will park nearby...Town is cold and the sidewalks slippery.   

Daughter purchased jelly filled shortbread cookies in Freeport...for me...the one I ate was so very delicious.  I will be investigating prepared meals at the grocery today....I do like the meatloaf one. I know I do not like the chicken one.  In another part of that part of the grocery store there might be a salmon one. Try New Things...???  I am buying a jar of spaghetti sauce today at the grocery and introducing my frozen meatballs to the sauce....then having it with the pasta I cooked.. Very happy about cooking something.

Well, boiling water can be construed as "cooking" because it involved the new stove....and not the microwave.  Induction glass top heats water so fast........magnets are magical.  I ma easily entertained.

Well, I will be looking for a tiny 9 patch to center and new cloth....Take Care. Stay Warm. Till Tomorrow.
