Before I forget, the word game site is
http://www.wordplays.com and this is the
word in a word that I like. They give you three minutes, which I don't care for. But you can write the word on a piece of paper and take your time.
Tonight I have been sewing. Emma needs her quilt by Feb 19, which is her baby naming. The 18th is a Friday and is her first birthday (as well as Marty's). So, quilt. I had made a string quilt forJordan - Jessica's friend Randy's first baby. She has always said it was the best gift she got.
Here are Jordan and his little brother on the quilt. They are too gorgeous! I have one block left -- do I make more and give Emma a similar quilt? Jessica thinks it is a beautiful quilt. Dunno.
On the one hand, I have strips up the wazoo that I could easily sew together and make something really cool. On the other hand, I have multitudinous (is there such a word??) experimental things and leftovers sitting around. I'll think about it over the weekend.
Or maybe I won't think at all, but just keep sewing and see what happens. This seems like a better alternative.

...as it is MY birthday, as well! Your strips always look so wonderful together -- I actually tried something stripy with my handdyeds recently and it was really yucky. Have a great holiday weekend!
We made your blog! So exciting to see my boys' photo there! The quilt you made jordan is still my most favorite baby gift. I hadn't used it in a while and was so excited to bring it out for baby Alexander! it is so colorful and beautiful! We hope yOu are well.

Just keep sewing and follow your muse.
I feel your pain! I have been documenting my quilting saga this week in trying to get the family xmas quilt done. You would think I would learn that xmas comes every year at the same time so there is no suprises here, but yet I stuggle to get the quilt done every year! Maybe next year I will make a vow to get it done by August - we'll see. I think I would use up the strips that are already cut. I know whatever you do it will be wonderful!
Whatever you make I'm sure Emma will adore it because it will be from Nanny and made with love!
