Old Time Story Book Quilt

When I went to pick up my block kit the owner

of the shop had just finished this small quilt top.It reminds me of books I read or looked at

as a young child. I know she plans for it

to be a child's quilt, but I wouldn't mind

having one with these old fashioned

picture squares.

Click and enlarge the pic and see if it

takes you back to days long past......

Priorities

Last week I had a Dr's appointment and saw this on

the wall in his office.

A HUNDRED YEARS FROM NOW IT WILL NOT MATTER

WHAT MY BANK ACCOUNT WAS, THE SORT OF

HOUSE I LIVED IN , OR THE KIND OF

CAR I DROVE; HOWEVER, THE WORLD WILL BE

DIFFERENT BECAUSE I WAS IMPORTANT

IN THE LIFE OF A CHILD.

Above are my 7 grandkids.....I hope that in spite of

having Chronic Fatigue Syndrome...I am able

to touch their lives enough to make

a difference.

When I am not able to be with them,

I am praying for them in their daily walk

through life.

Design Wall Monday

The quilt guild that I belong to makes quilts to give

to families that loose their homes to fire and they are

running short on quilts right now. This week I put

together these 12 1/2 inch blocks, I hope to add

a few more, and donate them to the club's block stash.

Finally got January's two Buck a Blocks picked up

pieced and the star points added.

The count on the 3 1/2 inch squares are now up to

134......that is 1 away from being half way there!

134 down and 136 to go

Foto Finish....... Kodachrome

When the subject was announced for this Saturday's

Foto Finish and it was Kodachrome the first thing I

thought of was the song, and I see I am not the only

one that did!!!!

I also remembered the segment on the

evening news about a shop over in Parson, Kansas

that was developing Kodachrome for the last time.

I tell you people had traveled from all over to

get their last pictures developed. It was kinda sad,

Kodachrome....a thing of the past.I like all the bright colors in this quilt I made last

summer. I even have a little green grass of summer

in the picture below.

Really, I could not resist going on over to You Tube and listening to that old

song from my early teens....thought I'd just share that, too. It plays better,

I think if you go on over and watch it on You Tube.
