Long Time No Post


Wow, a little over 4 years has passed since I have blogged. Life has been busy, and between Facebook and Instagram, I just let this slip away to the side. I’m going to try to get back in a more regular posting groove and see if anyone is still out there that cares to follow along with me. A lot has happened in the past 4 years. Lots of time spent enjoying my grandsons, as I kept them during the week days, either full or partial days depending on their school enrollment. Time so well spent! What a gift life gave me in allowing me to be a “stay at home grandmother”. My longarm quilting business has steadily been getting busier, as well, and now that all the boys are in school full time, I have more time to devote to my business and personal quilting, as well. I look forward to sharing more with you all again, and catching up with those of you that are still blogging that I used to follow along with, and hoping to find new blogging friends, too! The quilt below is one I made in 2009, quilted in January 2010, and shared here on the blog at that time. That was just shortly before my mom was diagnosed with lymphoma, and we began her treatment journey, and shortly after the conclusion of that, my late husband was diagnosed with his brain tumor. Every project I was working on at the time was just set aside, and I have so many UFO’s to finish from that time period. It is one of my goals to get them all completed. I am currently working on the hand stitching of the binding on this one. I will get this done! If you are reading this, thanks for the visit, and I hope you will come back!
