Sorry, I'm behind

It's funny, I have almost 200 squishes, yet I only have 45 posted. I AM SO BEHIND !!!!

Maybe someday, I'll get caught up. What is sad ... I forgot I had this blog open. OOPS !!!!

I was doing so well... I had all of my pieces cut and ready to sew. Then I decided I didn't like the pattern I was going to use. Needless to say, now that my squares are 1/3 of the size they were to start with, (and some smaller), I am finding my creative genius within to create a quilt that looks decent.

I was hoping for a queen size ... AIN'T GONNA HAPPEN NOW. I'll be happy if it turns out to be a "throw" blanket size.

Keep your fingers crossed.

waiting for others to come to you.

You have to go to them sometimes.

Hurt no living thing:

Ladybird, nor butterfly,

Nor moth with dusty wing,

Nor cricket chirping cheerily,

Nor grasshopper so light of leap,

Nor dancing gnat, nor beetle fat,

Nor harmless worms that creep.

"PATCHWORK QUILT"

Our family's like a patchwork quilt,

with kindness gently sewn.

Each piece is an original,

with beauty of it's own.

With threads of warmth and happiness,

It's tightly stiched together.

To last in love throughout the years,

Our family is FOREVER.

"May you be safe and warm, forever wrapped in your family's embrace
