Wednesday was a bizarre day; too much coming home than having to leave again. I spent most of the morning on the phone trying to find info on our sponsor kids in Haiti. Was told it will be up to a month before we know anything for sure. We do have faith they are okay since they live north of Port au Prince but still, we want 100% confirmation.

While I was making those phone calls, we had an appliance repair man here. And our dryer is officially dead. UGH. In the afternoon we headed over to a local scratch and dent place and got a new one. Who cares that it's got a dent or two? The price was right!

The best part of yesterday was the monthly meeting of Ladies who Lunch at our favoritest restaurant. Love these ladies! I did take my camera but never took it out of my purse. That may be a first for me!



Last night I spent finally getting my secret quiltie put together. I'm just noticing now that this picture is not the way the quilt went together. Hmmmm lol. I'm not 100% thrilled with this quilt. It's made from fat quarters and some of the fat quarters I had purchased, the fabric was a variegated fabric. I didn't realize that until I opened them up. So when I sewed the blocks back together, I tried to still go with the variation in the fabrics so it was continuous. That was a bit of a challenge in some cases lol.

Now I'm off to work to get it quilted. Have a good one!

Your quilt looks like "Happy Hour". I love the muted colors. Very pretty.

I've replaced my dryer a few times but I've had my washer for 26 years! I worry that it will one day be gone too. I'm with you on the scratch and dents. They just get scratched and dented when you have a family anyway! The quilt looks great to me!

Ughhh... our dryer has started shutting down when it gets too hot. We have to wait for it to cool off before we start it up again. Hey, it's making me more diligent to have everything washed up ahead of time.

And, I love your quilt. I can't wait to see it quilted.
