Quilt Block 1 & 2

My friend Harriett is huge into quilting as is my grandmother. I’ve made a couple of quilts in my time plus a few blankets so I can sew, although I can’t put a button back on a shirt nor can I fix the pocket in my jeans. I won’t ask my mom, she threatened to throw them out if I asked again… so I’ll be hitting grandma up to help there too :).

Anyway, back to Harriett. She came across this quilt pattern thing on the internet where the lady gives you a pattern a week for 25 weeks and then on week 26 teaches you how to put them together into a quilt top. I hit grandma up and asked if she’d be willing/interested in helping Abug and me do this and she said absolutely. My grandma leads such a HUGE busy schedule that I had to get into her schedule.

She told me not to worry about fabric, she had material and we’d find things in her sewing room to complete this project. I started off with bright green and purple. Then really liked green and pink. I have no idea what my plans are, all I know is my plans are for my baby girl to spend time with her great-grandma and I get to spend time with the both of them! That’s the goal. So here are the first two quilt blocks. We’re a few weeks behind on this adventure. It’s all good though.

    New Year’s Eve I woke up thinking about the Beer Cheese Fondue we had the year before. We didn’t have any plans so I asked hubby if he’d be interested in doing that. He said sure. I also asked my parents, grandma, and mother-in-law. Low key and good food. We had to get up early…

    Isn’t it strange how life works? Going along in your own little world and everything just gets turned upside down in a very fast whirl wind. Sometimes you don’t even have time to stop and say huh??? Well that has happened to me this year, but I’m going to tell you… sometimes just hang along…
