Been Journaling

I have a sinus infection or something. Eye swollen, pressure and pain in face. So I didn't go to church today. Instead I stayed home and worked on the next work in the circle journal round robin I've been participating in. (Yes, I know I just ended a sentence with a preposition. I do it all the time, and I think it's fine.)

This is Kay's journal, "Travels By the Sea." All the pages are lovely--and fun. I enjoyed doing my spread, except that I had three little doggies fussing at me the entire time, wanting me to come downstairs.

A day of rest…

Sort of.

For the past week, Mr. Painted Quilt and I have been spending anywhere from two to four hours a day working outdoors and admittedly, we’re both tired.  We decided to take today off to relax and chill.

Soldier, Soldier Let’s Reconsider Our Options.

Just when you thought it was safe —- here I am again. I have been off to the South East to help Daughter Number Two move again. I won’t go into why it was necessary but the net result is a much nicer flat and a much nicer area so it’s not all bad. We did have one sleepless night worrying about getting the wardrobe into the bedroom. After all a wardrobe in a dining room is not exactly ‘a la mode ‘ and it seemed inevitable at one point. However we regrouped and did a bit of lateral thinking

Trying to be disciplined

I am trying to be a bit more disciplined with my quilting.  After I finished the fan quilt I was all set to start a new one…but then I looked at my pile of unfinished work and thought I should finish at least one before I start yet another.  Here is the choice (I picked this one because it wont take long to finish).
