Wow! This is a real stash busting quilt!! This quilt is inspired by Karen, of the Log Cabin Quilter. You can see her quilt
HERE!!! I have been in love with it for years, and have always wanted to make one just like Karen's. So here is where I am in the process. Karen graciously said I could make one like hers, and a lots of fabric pieces that Karen gifted me with are in this quilt.
I had to snap some pictures quickly, because Rosie wanted in on the action, LOL! Do you have a doggie who helps you quilt, too?
I have continued to bind 30 minutes at night, and I finished this little bow tie quilt, for some baby, sometime!!
Lots of girls at work are pregnant, so probably one of those babies will have a new quilt.
The above block is by Cheri Payne. She is having a quilt along, and you can find the files
HERE for her blocks. Look under files. Many of you know that Cheri has been battling cancer, and is undergoing chemo for this, as well as having had extensive surgery. We are all praying for you, Cheri!! If you think this block is wonky? Well, it is! SNORT!!! I like it anyway!
Still making some green blocks!!These are so mindless, and great fun!!
This is the first iris of Spring, in the back yard!! I love these carefree lovely things...Jewels in the garden!
Many of you asked about this wool block, and the origin of the pattern. It can be found
HERE. A free quilt along is always fun!!
Did you know? Randy, of the Barrister's block blog, is started a super fun quilt along too!! Please see it
HERE!!
********************Nurse's Notes****************************
It has been REALLY BUSY at work! February was like a storm, but unusually, January was so very slow, patient wise. March is even busier so far. Many, many heart surgeries, and many cancer surgeries. One rotoprone bed (AARDS).
I have a great love for the families...those walking wounded family members, who come in day by day, supporting their loved ones, some who cannot talk back to them. Some on the ventilator chronically, with no hope of ever getting off of the vent. I do my best to support them and love them, with coffee, warm blankets and talking. I pray for them too!!
All in a nurse's day!

I hope each of you is having a wonderful day!!
