Well, it's been a while sense I posted. I've got many reasons~ One being our six year old grand son came to live with us for a while. Now when you haven't had small children around in a long time it takes a bit of getting use to. I'm not sure who is getting use to it, our grand son or my husband and I? We have our ups and downs but all in all, he is a good little boy. I have to keep reminding myself his is a typical six year old. He started school (first grade) last week and in his words Loves Loves Loves his new school his grandma, grandpa, mama and daddy. So that's off to a very good start!

I started Miss Zinnia way back in February and here it is the 3rd of  September. So now I'll have to prep the fabrics for Miss Iris, this will be block number 10. I had to put a number in each corner so when I go to my quilting group I can remember when I'm working on them I know what block I'm working on. Sounds like I'm close ... however ... there is a very large border and it's all applique flowers all the way around. I'm not so sure where this quilt will go when it's complete, maybe it's just going to be a reminder (one day) how much I loved needle work? My grandson and I had fun spreading the nine blocks I have completed on the floor and then picked the one we liked the best. We found that hard to do and we couldn't just pick just one.
Memories we made together.

Happy Quilting to all my friends.....
