Stashbusting 3-20-11

Fabric in   10yards
Fabric out  0 yards

Bad girl yes :-)  I took a class with Marci Baker 2 weeks ago, the samples are still in the bag I brought home.  I did go buy a new rotary cutter,  much safer, it the one when you release the blade it retracts, much safer (oh I said that lol)  I pulled out the sewing machine, got a new iron board cover for $28 (better last forever, it's a xlarge ironing board)  Got the quilt picked out to finish for March.  Also have three more in the have to get done mode-- real soon, 2 are baby quilts, babies due in May and June - coworkers  and still working on a quilt for my daughters friend.  Also want to work on my Grandmother flower garden quilt, need to take the basting out on all those 1 million pieces......  by the time I finish this quilt it will feel like 20 million pieces.

Well this has been along time since blogging.  I'm going to blame it on games.....  plus to lazy to write.
So family, you know how life is, but to anyone else reading this blog it has been interesting few months.  My daughter that is in the military is in Bahrain, for a year (10 months to go).  Yes she was there for the uprising, she says it has calmed down alot.  Funny how I read more on the world news now.   We the family have been taking turns getting sick,  my oldest daughter been sick almost 4 weeks, than the grandson got sick, also almost 4 weeks, and than the son-in -law got sick.   In between all of it, I of course wanted to get it too, I was down for 2 weeks.  Lost all energy to do anything, diet,walk, sew, watch movies and think.
So here it is 12:56pm Sunday, need to get sewing....

Lots of projects in the works. Our kids have been overseas and you do pay more attention to the national news especially in the area that they are working in.
