That stinking flu!

Yes, I had the flu.  I will be getting a flu shot next year.  I had not been that sick in about 10 years.  My chest still sounds icky but I am feeling so much better.  The worst thing is that it is so draining.  I actually have been feeling like an old lady!

I have lots of projects lined up for this weekend.  I have purchased several yards of a variety of different scarf fabrics.  I love making infinity scarves.  They go together quickly, look beautiful and are big sellers.  I managed to do the first set of piecing on my new Christmas quilt and I would like very much to go from HSTs to hour glass blocks this weekend.  I think that if I don't bite off too much at one time I will not get bored and distracted.  (Then again, perhaps not.)  My son and daughter-in-law bought me a 10" compound miter saw for Christmas.  I am really anxious to build a workbench in my basement so that I can start cutting wood for a wall of board and batten!  I wonder how much I can actually cram into one weekend?

Big news in my corner of the world...



just bought the inventory of a quilt shop that closed.  Every piece of fabric is $3.99 a yard!  I had to stop in just to look.  I really didn't need any fabric.  You know how that goes...I bought about 11 yards.  I was tempted by the batiks but didn't buy any today.  I picked up some Moda, a little Henry Glass, some Free Spirit and a smidgen of Riley Blake fabrics.  The special quilting fabric cannot be purchased on line but if you are anywhere near Sinking Spring, Pennsylvania - stop in!
