I Like Thursday #42

No photo description available.

I'm trying not to panic over the coronavirus. I've had to turn off the news a few times. It was getting to be too much. When I get a little nervous, I sew. It's my therapy. I'm sure many of you do the same thing. Well, thanks to this new virus, I have 2 finishes this week! Carolina Chain is now a completed quilt top! I tried my best to line up all my seams but towards the end, I wasn't quite as careful. It still looks fine.

My wall hanging is done too! I was a little nervous about quilting it but that turned out to be much easier than I expected. It was fast! It took 2 hours max.

I don't eat many carbs but I do make exceptions! My mother made home made meat pie and spinach pie. It was worth the added carbs!

St. Patrick's Day is next week. I have my front door all decorated. I'm not Irish but my husband and kids are. I did visit Ireland years ago and thought it was beautiful! I'd like to visit again. 

Thanks for reading my Thursday likes. Go visit LeeAnna at Not Afraid of Color for more positive and fun posts! Stay healthy!!

  7. Your quilt and wall hanging are gorgeous! Yup, it helps to focus on something fun and soothing. Today I sewed three pillow covers and made a butterfly with duct tape. Easy-peasy stuff.
