Money Just Lying around

Have you ever wondered the type of people that drop money and don't bother looking for it?
or don't pick it up? I don'd understand it.
Sure you can no longer buy anything with a penny, but with enough pennies you can buy anything.

on Saturday, I picked up two dimes
and yesterday I found a penny.

total for the year- $0.21
how much can I get this year?

Mending Month

So I decided that January is mending month.
So I can not feel bad about the pile sitting there while I make new quilts instead...

Also the quilting bug bit my mom :D she is planning her first quilt.
and I have to add another quilt in to new years resolution! so 5 quilts and a 5K.

I also started volunteering at the local library and am looking for a job, and I plan on registering to substitute teach.

let the mending begin.

End of last year

Well sometime in December I posted my last post of last year. BUTTTTTT....a lot of stuff happened...

I got the yellow quilt back from Teresa looking great all quilted and I put on my first print border

Then I was in a wedding at the end of December and the bride made all of these for the bridesmaids

and while I was at the church which happened to be my Grandma's church I saw this quilt

which my Grandma helped make, at the roots are the names of the founders of the church, and the leaves represent each member

overall this has been a great quilting year, i learned a lot, and I know I will do great next year :D
