on the two 'ufo' picks for Feb--
and I was able to get this top finished--
remember I was using up some scraps from a honey bun on this one above--
and would you believe this is what was left of the fabric--
After lunch today I had to go the Doctor's office to get my monthly B-12 injection--
and the nurse who has given me this shot for years always wants to see a--
'show n tell' of a quilt or two--
so I took the one above--(as I also needed to go to the quilt shop for the outer border on this one--can you believe I had nothing in my stash for this one????)
and I took this one--
and I walked out with out either one!!!!
Another lady doctor works on Monday afternoon's so when I go then she has to see the show n tell too!!! and she fell in love with the home sweet home one==so I handed it to her and told her she could finish it and keep it--
my nurse Connie really liked this Schnibbles, which I did too when it was all finished--
but let's face it--I already have my share of quilts--and Connie does hand quilt--so I gave her this one to finish and keep!!!!
Sooo--I am not sure if I am 'crazy' here or just very generous with my 'things' ??????
But I do hope and think that I may have made two ladies happy today!!!
Sunday--that Miss Gracie got after me with the 'whip' (she must of borrowed Chookyblues for the day) and made me do alot--alot of house work--so I have a clean house now!!!!
and I read a book on the kindle and last night I watched a movie--
so I was on a roll all week end--and I did get more hand quilting done on the pink quilt!!!!!
and I got a 'thimble' story for you one of these days!!!
And here is a local story for you--
she had to a project for school that would include "100" of something--
and would you believe she decided to make these--
and that is why she did 2 extra one will go to the quilt shop and one for her school to show!!!
What a gal!!!
note--most of the kids do things like 100 Cheerios on a string-or collect 100 pennies--things like that!!!
Well--I am outta here for tonight--
Happy stitching tomorrow--
Hugs, Di and a special Miss Gracie--
Ahhhhh--miss gracie, you can give Chookyblue her 'whip' back now!!!!!

You are very generous! I'm sure you made those ladies very happy and they will be talking about it for a long time.
What a sweet story. 102 pillow cases is alot.
You are sweet to give away the little quilts- very generous way to spread the love. I'm in awe of the little gal with the 102 pillowcases - what a wonderful project. Everyone connected to it should be proud.
Lovely projects you are working on Di.
Good girl Miss Gracie getting out the whip so Di got her work done.LOL
