Some Things That I Am Currently Working On

In between household chores and watching the kids,

I love to have lots of projects lying around so that

my hands and mind are never left idle.

Here is a quilt top that my grandmother gave my mother

many years ago.  It was pieced by my great grandmother

and no one in my family knew how to finish it.

So, several years ago, my mother gave it to me

in hopes that I would finish it.  I packed it in

a container and forgot about it.

This summer, I am making it my goal to 

repair it and then quilt and bind it.

It is a rather small quilt with 4 inch squares so

I know this is an attainable goal.

I have already researched repairing antique quilts

so I am going to find what works best.

This just has some minor damages along a few seams.

I think my bog challenge will be trying to decide how to bind it.

Everyone knows I love to crochet.  Now that I have cleaned

my yarns and my craft area, I decided to start

a new project.  I found this wonderful pattern

from another blogger.

It was such a unique and simple

pattern I had to try it.  This is what I have

accomplished after just 1 day.

It is highly addictive and oh so cute.

And lastly, I am working on finishing this book.

I loved Twilight that I could not put it down and

finished it in 2 days.  Then I got to New Moon and

it was more difficult for me to get into, but I finished it.

Now I am reading Eclipse which is a lot like Twilight, 

but I have not had a lot

of time to read.  I fear if I pick it up, I will not get any

of my chores done.  What is a girl to do?
