Sad isn't it when you have to get a nudge from a friend to write on your own blog? I was never good at keeping a diary when I was young. Then journaling became popular. When I was diagnosed with cancer five years ago I was given a journal by the JamesCare Stitching Sisters. The idea was that I should record my thoughts as I battled the cancer. I was too sick to write in that book. I ended up carrying it in my purse to make shopping notes in. It still is around somewhere.
Okay, back to the purpose of this blog - sharing my quilting journey with my family and friends. I love to quilt but yet will use any excuse to keep from going into the basement to sew. I am going to have to come up with a better plan. The basement offers me the storage I need but I like being able to look out of the window occasionally. Can't do that in the basement.
I made four blocks this week for a mystery quilt that several of my OhioQuilter friends are working on. It is a new experience. An online quilt site is hosting this. Each month they print directions plus provide a video of two new blocks. By the end of the year I should have 24 completed 12 inch blocks. Viola - a quilt top to add to my pile. Someday they will all be completed.
Here are pictures of the four blocks I have completed.
