Finally back to quilty things

This is what I have been working on for quite awhile. I got tired of it so I put it away and worked on other things. One of the things I completed was stockings for my daughter. She works in a senior living community and is the Health Promotions Coordinator. She runs the exercise facility in the community. She decided she wanted to give each of her clients a stocking stuffed with healthy recipes. Guess who got to make the stockings? That would be me. I didn't mind but she needed 60 of them. I managed to get them done with time to spare but I forgot to take a picture of all of them.

So now I'm back to my Lone Star. I only have 14 more points to make!

Scraps!!!!! HELP!

I have a huge bin of scraps that I must get rid of. I'm running out of room and my daughter is threatening to clean out my fabric stash for me. I must not let her anywhere near my fabric. If she cleans that out like she did my cabinets, when she moved back in, I will never find anything. So I am willing to send them to a lovely new home. I actually have enough for 2 lovely new homes. I will pick 2 random people on Tuesday evening at 9:00 pm. If you want them just leave me a comment. (inside the US please, must have money left over for groceries)

Must Get Busy

I have got to get busy on something. My daughter's boyfriend has many T-shirts from high school. He would love a quilt. I have never made a T-shirt quilt so I looking for advice. Any and all advice will be welcome. Thanks

WOW! Am I Way Behind!

Boy have I been out of it. Here it is October and I have posted anything since the first of August. I have been sewing either. School has started again and that pretty much takes up most of my time. After teaching all day, running an after school program two nights a week and taking on the job of a Special Services Coordinator I'm too tired to care at the end of the day. But I have most everything caught up so I will be able to get back to sewing.
My daughter's boyfriend wants me to make him a T-shirt quilt. His mom was going to make it be she feels out of her element and ask me to do it. I have never made a T-shirt quilt so I am looking for ideas. So that will be my next project.
I'm off to do some research.

July--What happened to this month?

I can't believe July is almost over. That means in just 3 short weeks I will have to start getting up again and going to work. YUCK!! Really wish I could afford to retire!! Maybe in a few years. I do like my job. I teach special services. My students are great most of the time. I have students grades K-6. I'm just TIRED!! Oh well, I will really try to enjoy the last few weeks!!

Hoping for a phone call today

My daughter just graduated in May from IUPUI (Indiana University Purdue University Indianapolis) with honors I might add! I am very proud of her. Now if she would just find a job. She has a degree in Exercise Science. She completed her internship in Cardiac Rehab at IU Methodist in Indianapolis. She enjoys working with senior citizens so she has applied at every assisted care facility in a 3 county area. She had a great interview last Thursday and now we are just waiting on a call back. Hopefully today will be the day. It's like watching a pot and waiting for it to boil!! Say a prayer for her that she gets this job. She really doesn't want to wait tables anymore.
