Time......

Where does all my time go????   Not much sewing going on here...life seems rather fractured and harried right now.  Maybe I am just trying to get too much done..who knows?  
I have finished a T-shirt quilt for my nephew for his high-school graduation.  It is ready to go to the quilter!  Yeah!!!  I am his favorite aunt (smile) and his other favorite aunt donated the t-shirts.  Jared loves classic rockers, like Aerosmith, Guns and Roses, Kiss, White Snake....and Carissa had been to several of the concerts.  She donated the shirts and I made the quilt.  I found some great fabric for the borders and the backing...rock and roll with all kinds of  guitars on it. 


I have managed to get a couple of my Civil War Blocks done....still have so many to catch up on!



Along with planting flowers outdoors,  I am still working on my Flowers quilt when the raindrops are falling outdoors!  Today looks to be a stormy day, and the roofers were supposed to come put on our new roof today.  We had tennis ball size hail the first of April, and every home on our street is getting a new roof.  The grace in all of this, is that we still have homes with a roof to repair, unlike so many that are being devistated by flooding and tornadoes. 

My cute little helper....what little boy does not like to get his hands in the mud?

Hope everyone is doing something fun today!  I need to do some serious cleaning in my sewing room...looks like a bomb went off in it!

You have been busy. I see your little helper and I remember my kids helping me and dirt everywhere...between toes, up noses, down shirts, etc...I miss those days...

Your Civil War blocks are looking really nice! I just may have to jump in and make one of my own.

I don't get much done in the spying and early summer - too nice to stay inside sewing. Every little project is check in the "done" column. Looks like you've got three checks - very cute!

I know a few guys who would love the hard rock quilt! Great job. Your CW blocks look marvy, but more importantly, what a darling little garden helper!!
