beautiful sunrise

         I was up very early and saw the most beautiful sunset, many shades of pink. I took  a picture and with the outline of the trees that looked black  in front of it , would make a beautiful landscape picture. My hubby went skiing all day yesterday,so I did some spring cleaning. Boy, that feels good. A few before and after of my sewing room, looking good.

after

I am working on an old quilt my son has had of his Grandmother's and needs repairs. I need to replace some of the worn strips and put a new backing on, flannel of course.
 Looks like a rather dull day so I will get started.

Wow, where have I been

Well, still organizing my sewing room. One very big job and it is coming. I have been laid up the last month with polymyalgia, very painful ,so no sewing or much of anything. On prednisone and getting back to normal and ready to hit the machine. I made belts and swords like the Power Rangers for my 3 grandsons, so that was my first job . I missed a very successful community workshop day which was sad. They completed 9 quilts.  I am busy getting the newsletter writtenand  ready to email. Our Runaway quilter's are doing a round robin which I am excited about. There are six of us and I am using a panel that I have had and didn't want to make into a wall hanging. We have had snow and more snow the last four days. The sun is shining and looks cheery outside. Happy quilting !
