Pinwheel piecing

My purple and green pinwheel piecing is complete! Here are my squares laid out on the floor before sewing them together. I think they came out sooo pretty and I am very pleased. I will be putting one or two borders along the edges to make my quilt bigger. 

I want to wish you all a very happy 4th of July! We will be spending this evening celebrating with friends and neighbors, good food and fireworks. We are ever so thankful for our military Son and his service to our great country. We miss him so much! 
I baked a bunch of chocolate chip cookies for this evening and also chocolate dipped strawberries




Blessings!❤️

A little update


Just a little update!
I have finished parts 2 and 3 of Jardin Prive's SAL
I am really loving this beautiful design!
I am stitching all the letters in the same pretty green as the leaves on the plants.

I framed my Prairie Schooler Chicken :)

I added more stripes to my crochet blanket... This is queen size, so you see why it is taking forever to make!


I have been sewing pinwheel squares out of my Violetta RJR fabric. I have been wanting to do this for quite some time! This fabric line is no longer available. It is oh so pretty in purples and greens!!❤️



Cannot wait to put them all together for a quilt top!

It snowed here in our part of town. Only about two inches, and it didn't last very long .... But it was very pretty!

I left a note on the front steps for our Military Son and snapped a photo...

Not enough snow for a snowman, so I made a snow angel!

Another angel... But this one held the snow in her arms!




Although it was soooo cold outside, we kept warm inside with cocoa and a hot meal of a roast in the crockpot!

I think everyone is ready for Spring to come along now. This has been a very long cold winter!
I may have to be traveling back to the doctor again, which I so do not want to do. I am having terrible hand and foot pain. Not quite sure what could be wrong. It worries me. The pain gets so bad I cannot even stitch. My hands ache!! I am thinking arthritis?
I am praying it's nothing serious.
I couldn't imagine giving up all I love :(





Celebrating 60 Years!

I am celebrating 60 years of me! How blessed am I that God gave me all these years. This is One Stitch at a Time by La D Da. Stitched 2/2 ...
