Blogaversary

It hardly seems possible that it was a year ago this month (April 6th to be exact) that I began this blogging adventure. I am not as faithful at posting as I would like. I find myself spending far more time reading other blogs than posting to my own. Inspiration abounds as I read blogs from so many talented crafters and writers. I'm daily awed by their work. I have been so blessed to "meet" so many new people from all around the world! Isn't this world wide web just wonderful?!! One of these, ThimbleAnna, calls us her "imaginary friends". I like that!!

One of the fun things about blogging is the swaps available to participate in. I have fabric from all over the world waiting to become a postage stamp quilt. I also recently mailed off 60 signature blocks (pictured below) for another swap. I will soon (I hope) receive back blocks by quilters from around the globe.

It is so fun to share my boring little life with you, my family and friends (old and new). The next six months look to be exciting and I am looking forward to sharing it with you. I vow to do better this year and hopefully soon will reach my 100th post. Thanks so much for making this adventure so much fun!!

Thanks for stopping by!! Happy Quilting!!

She Said Yes!!!

So much has happened here in the past several weeks. The most important of which is that it's now official. Our firstborn and his sweetheart are engaged. He proposed on April Fool's Day. I get the impression that there is a story there but we haven't heard it yet. We just know that she said yes and they are really excited. No date has been set. She is finishing up law school in December and will take the bar in February so they really don't want to add the stress of wedding planning to all that. We couldn't be happier!!!
