On the first of March, while it was snowing out(melted the same day), I walked over to the grocery store to pick up a few things. At the check out stand there was a bucket of daffodils and the checker put a bundle of them in my bag "to brighten up a snowy day". They look so cheery on my dining room table.
Later that day, while reading my email I found that Shelly Stokes had written about me in her newsletter. It's now on her blog and you can read it here . I must say between that and the daffodils I had a great day!
Over the past month I've made six quilt tops that I'll quilt sometime later and then donate to either Project Linus or St. Luke's children's cancer center. I took some quick pictures of them - they would have looked better with some space between them. The best part is I used up a whole pile of scraps and now have an empty scrap basket!
I have a little over a week left on my "Sixty five days to 65" project and have decided to do another daily project. I will be starting on my birthday and continuing until my following birthday. The fabrics in this pile will be used.

Love the scrap tops for charity. Such a nice way to give back.
ReplyDeleteI'm excited to see all of your 65 pieces together. It feels like the time has flown by.
Thanks Kathleen - the time has flown, I've been putting them up on my design wall and will be ready to sew them together on my birthday!
DeleteI love the quilts that you've made for charity and it's a great way to make the scrap bag less full. That was a great mention of you and your work.
