Aren't we so lucky to have this super fun quilting thing to do, to be absorbed in? Aren't we blessed???

Yes, we are blessed to have hobbies. I can’t imagine not having my sewing or knitting to help keep me busy and sane. That mini sampler is adorable!
Yes wonderful hobby and solace and bandaid and resting place all together...
Love those pink string blocks and the alternate block with the black strip appeals to me greatly. Your sampler quilt is lovely.
Lucky looks quite handsome on his new sampler quilt :-) How fun to have a connection to a long time friend with quilting.
I love the sunflowers! Mine will bloom in another week or so. I planted 3 different varieties. I can't wait to this red one that has many blooms on each branch.
My heart is thinking of your patient. It is good to make choices and I pray hers is blessed with some strong loving people to cherish her.
Log Cabins are such versatile blocks aren't they? I love your pink blocks:)))
I am partial (at least right now haha) to the Courthouse Steps--thinking of our up coming elections--and trying to stay hopeful...
I am picking fabrics for one while I rest my arms/shoulder/hands after machine quilting 3 quilts....
We are so lucky to have our hobbies during stressful times and heatwaves....Stay cool hugs, Julierose
You've got some pretty pinks going on (and kitty deserves his own quilt! LOL). I'd do the same as your patient if I was diagnosed with cancer..when your hubby has already been gone 12 years and one son and one granddaughter (the only one) haven't spoken to you in over 5 years, what's to live for? It is what it is...
The sampler is terrific. The cat has good taste. I like the idea of alternate blocks with the pink log cabins.
I am so proud of your cancer patient! My mother was on her fourth round of throat cancer 36 years ago and knew further rounds of chemo just weren't going to help her. On the third round she was so weak she fell and broke her hip. In those days the research showed that after two rounds of throat cancer, the patient was usually a goner anyway. She was inoperable and couldn't have anymore radiation becuase she really needed those neck vertebrae. So she decided to live out the rest of her life in joy. I hated losing her when I was only 38, but some choices in life just aren't fun. My mother didn't really have much choice after all.
Your patient is being so very brave! Hats off to her! I hope her family, friends and community all are there for her when her going gets really tough. Life is so very precious and each day is a gift. We aren't measured by what we do, but by who we truly are.
wow, it is amazing
your sampler is beautiful!! All those blocks looke so great together!!!
and your pink string blocks - Yummy!!!
