Hi Friends!! Have you ever...well, often, had some moments of just pure happiness? Well, that is where I am right now...a rare moment of peace, tranquility and satisfaction. Why? Because I finished all the frog-stitching on the hour glass/nine patch friendship quilt! Yippee! And I finished my ACLS class this morning (a required advanced life support class for nurses), and got 100% on my test. AND...above! I got home this afternoon and put together the latest string thing! I just love it, love it. I learned that muddy and clear colors look best...not together. I picked ,as well as I could, only clear bright colors from the string bin for this quilt. It just makes me happy to see it...I feel like I have been given a gift!! By the way, I still have a huge bin of strings. Just goes to show you, the strings make wild whoopy in the string box!! and multiply!I made a mistake in the layout...and am going to leave it. I like it.
Thanks for listening to my blather...
By the way, the Gypsy girl has gone home, fixed up just fine...and is doing well.

You did have a great day! This quilt is very happy!
Love the string quilt...I won't tell anyone you have a block that has a mind of it's own and does not want to play properly with the other blocks.
Congrats on the 100%...aren't you glad this is behind you?
Have a great weekend.
Very pretty... and congrats on the ACLS.
A terrific day, indeed! Love your string quilt.
oooohhh very pretty and happy looking!
Gorgeous! I like clear brights, too!
Congrats on passing the ACLS! That test always stresses me out.
Oh yes - occasionally everything comes together! You deserve major congrats on your test, and this quilt is indeed happy, cheerful - what a difference the sashing makes on a pattern we've seen a lot of. You're right, keep the muddy colors away - this is a peachy quilt! I'm going to re-look, based on what Ameila (above) says! ???
I love those days of satisfaction all around *s* Remember the feeling - it will carry you along 'til the next one comes along.
Doing the happy dance with you---love your quilt! You did good!
Your string quilt looks awesome!
Congrats on the high test score..are your wrists sore from the compressions? I hate that part.
Hope you get a day off to enjoy your accomplishments. And good news about gypsy girl. Strong work!

Congratulations!

Your quilt is perfect, Julie! :) Your entrance Halloween decorations are adorable, girl, and I love, love, love that runner you have on the table---can you post a picture of it and let me know what pattern you used? :) I also love the flying geese on your embroidery quilt! Perfect!
It is perfect... love how you turned the block in your quilt... makes it special.. and yes it is a happy quilt!! :o)
It is a very cheerful colorway and definitely brings a smile. Glad you danced:)
So nice reading your happy blathering! Haha! Your string quilt is bright and beautiful! It is a happy quilt! Just like you!
Woohoo...great job on the test and the string quilt. (It took me three minutes of hard looking to find the free-spirited block - no worries!)
Well done on the 100%. Love your bright cheery string quilt.
