When I created this blog it was for myself but others had the opportunity to view it if they so desired.
Why, I do not know as it is rather boring, but it does provide me a journal of what is going on in my life at that time.  For the next few months there will be very little about quilting and a lots more about moving. 


Today I have worked in my sewing room.  It is almost 3:00pm and I have managed to pack 4 boxes but have cleaned out a LOTS of junk.  Yesterday I packed two boxes and a bin but again cleaned out so much from a bookcase and had three bags of books for our local library's annual book sale next year.  My dilemma is photos that I have not looked at in 15 years and will have no room to store.  I packed them up and once moved and settled in I am going to go through them and will keep a few, give away the others (if the children want them) and then trash the remainder.

Downsizeing

I received the news several weeks ago that an apartment in the 55+ community will be available in mid November and I am delighted.  The packing has started and I hope to move sometimes afterwards.  The big question is how can you accumulate so much "stuff" in 15 years? 

Scrappy Star Quilt

I used up lots of my scraps for this one.  Finally finished it!
