Bulls eye

Well it took all day but I finally got this quilted. Now for binding. This was a blind block exchange I think in 2011.yikes. just could not think how to quilt it and got help from m.q. P. M.Q. of course stands for master quilter. I like it and just did lines in border. Already too busy.
I am dedicated to clearing away some oooold projects. Unfortunately most involve getting them quilted.
Two more are ready to quilt. Maybe this week.
Windy quilting.

Will try a new pattern P suggested for a quilt tomorrow. I am planning on being home all day. Cecil will be glad.
Rainy quilting.

Withdrawal

I did not realize how much having a working computer was a part of my daily routine.  I am addicted to free cell and checking blogs.  When my server@$#%&* said I was eligible for a new modem enabling me to access the faster speed in my area I said yes because my computer had been sooooooslow.  That was a week ago and just yesterday thanks to my neighbor I was able to get on my computer again.  That was after numerous hours on the phone (at times my cell because the house line was with the server and down also).  Anyway I could use my cell but doing any amount of typing on the cell was not for ff (fat fingers).
Anyway today the sky is blue the sun is out it was cold for our walk and God is good.
We are giving K and S a baby shower this afternoon and all is ready.
Just went outside and the cardinals are eating the sunflower seeds, the blue jay is squawking, and the momma and poppa blue birds are feeding the three babies in the nest.  If they keep on the babies won't be able to get out.  I keep watching hoping to see them fly! I am also watching for the resident hawks flying high above.  It is indeed a wonderful world.
The picture below was taken last week when the rhododendron was in full bloom.
Time to work.
