I'm finally retired and feel I can do what I love. I'm so happy to be out of the rat race! I try to quilt, read and knit as much as possible. I love to get comments and will respond to each and every one! I hope you enjoy my little blog as much as I do! Thank you for visiting me!

Farm Girl Update
These are the 2 latest blocks for the Farm Girl Vintage Sew Along. The block on the left is Cool
Threads. I didn't think this block would be difficult but it took much longer than I anticipated. The block on the right is Churn Dash which is a familiar block to most of us. This block was very quick to make.
If you check out A Bee in My Bonnet, Lori Holt pieced a heart into the center of the Churn Dash block. So cute! I didn't see her post until after sewing my block. I'm so afraid I'll fall behind that I try to make the blocks as soon as I can! I should check out her blog post before sewing the next 2 blocks.
Here are the 9 blocks so far in the Sew Along. I'm sewing the 6 1/2 inch blocks. I think they're adorable! Not bad for a stash quilt!! I'm already looking forward to the next 2 blocks!
