My father-in-law passed away almost two weeks ago (3-25-2014) after we put our heart,home, and hands into continual care of him as a leukemia patient.
So after the stormy whirlwind..... Hubby and I are home alone. Time and loneliness on our hands. A wise girlfriend even said its OK ... to be relieved that Papa is gone! My blog and sewing room has taken a silent whipping..... the kids even stacked junk in my sewing room, closed the door.... when company came over!!! OK??? well, I guess so.
But... It's Monday! and I've rejoined my "girls" at the YMCA. The Afrono Quilt Guild is made up of retired women who quilt twice a week.... from about 10:00 am to 3:00pm on Monday's and Fridays!!
That means I take a lunch hour (and a half) to drive 6-8 minutes over to the center!
I pulled out a box of greens.....threw the box in the back seat....
Spent a little less than an hour... ironing and laying out in order to cut 7" squares.
I think I'll do a triangle quilt... the pattern calls for 6 7/8" squares, place with a light fabric RST and sew a diagonal line. Cut apart and I'll end up with two triangles!
To here's the first stack of green fabric out of the box (and yes, I'm color-coded!)
