Hobbies and Passion



Well, when we moved I told Justin all I wanted to do was to quilt. I really haven't had much opportunity since being here but recently I have been able to sit down and work on a few things. I made a queen size quilt for my niece who got married last week and then from the scraps I made another one with a different pattern. Now I must say I am obsessed with looking at quilting fabric and patterns. I love them all I only wish they weren't so expensive. I have plans for 3 more that I hope I can start working on soon. I have been sewing for about 24 years and I love it. Sometimes I make things even though I have no one to give them to. I have even run into people from the past and they tell me that I made their baby a quilt or outfit...I can never remember them but it makes me feel good. Here is a picture of the one I just finished...

Alexism

So Alex and I have been fighting with allergies this week...Scotchbroom!!! He has been coughing a little and has a stuffy nose. I asked him if he wanted any medicine for his stuffy nose and he said no, he could still breathe out of one NOZZLE! He is so funny!
