And So It Goes


Toward the end of February I just got fed up with winter. I found this panel in my stash and quilted it and hung it in the den. Mr. Muddling and I have truly enjoyed this little glimpse of beach-y beauty. Sometimes you just have to take matters into your own hands.
 
 
I made this little quilt for the children at our church. The sweet lady in charge told me they really enjoyed the last two I made. They like to put them on the floor and sit on them as they do their activities and listen to stories.
 
I made this one to go along with it. I hope they love them!
 
 
In my ramblings around blogland I noticed this quilt on Jo's Country Junction. It is called Brick House and you can find directions for it here
Why do I keep starting new projects? Who can I blame?
I NEED to get back to the log cabin quilt. What can I say, I was sidetracked.
 
 
I am really loving the Mary Engelbreit daily calendar I got for this year. This page for today and tomorrow explains a lot.
 
I hope you are having lots of fun and doing things you enjoy.
There are so many things always for which to be grateful.
Enjoy the rest of the weekend!
 
Hugs and kisses,
Elaine

You have been super busy, Elaine. Lots of pretties coming out of your quilt room. I love the beach quilt; the quilting is gorgeous. The kiddos will enjoy the little cheerful quilt . Have a wonderful weekend. Hugs.

Great way to bring an early Summer into your home. I sometimes think Winter can drag on a bit.
The quilts for the children to use at church are a great idea. It is special that they like them so much, too.
The brick house quilt is definitely looking good. I can see why it has distracted you.
I had a good laugh when I read your calendar page. Great fun!

I love the beach panel hanging. It is always good to have something that makes you smile.
I am sure the kids really enjoy those quilts on the floor.

That beachy panel is just lovely Elaine & perfect for looking at in the wintery months to make you dream of summer days. You are so kind to make the quilts for the children at church - I can just imagine how they enjoy sitting on them on the floor. That calendar is priceless ... & rather true!! xx
