Introducing Our Sweet Levi
Finally this little man was brought into our world at 9:20 this morning. Isn’t he just the cutest little bundle of joy? The doctors had warned us the little man would only be about 5 lbs. Boy were they wrong! He weighed in at 7 lbs 9 ozs. His sweet momma was a real trooperContinueContinue reading “Introducing Our Sweet Levi”
Happy Monday
What a whirlwind few days we’ve had! I haven’t had a chance to make the three additional blocks I need for Levi, my on his way now, third great grandchild. They are at the hospital now and the waiting has begun! And yes, it was slipped that baby is a boy and his first nameContinueContinue reading “Happy Monday”
Life Takes Another Turn
The exercise regime that DH and his doctors and therapists have settled on for the next two weeks is having great results. He is walking better, his shoulders are almost level and his range of motion is increasing. Yesterday he reached the point where he was able to do a full hour of activity withoutContinueContinue reading “Life Takes Another Turn”
Storm at Sea
Did any of you follow the Getaway Blog Hop sponsored by Island Batiks and hosted by all of the Island Batik Ambassadors? I have and have been absolutely blown away by so many creative and inspirational people. For several years I have been wanting to create a Storm at Sea quilt. The movement and intricateContinueContinue reading “Storm at Sea”
One Monthly Goal
I was able to meet my January goal of getting some bags and pouches done to get myself organized. I also got caught up with my Quiltville Good Fortune Mystery Quilt. Can I do the same in February? I do have several town trips for doctors appointments and a trip to Kelowna for the MSContinueContinue reading “One Monthly Goal”
January UFO & WIP Link Up
Today I am pleased to be able to link up with Julie’s link up on the Crafty Quilter blog. I managed to finish 3 more project bags to get myself organized in spite of having to make an unplanned trip to Vancouver, British Columbia to see about a life altering treatment for DH. I know,ContinueContinue reading “January UFO & WIP Link Up”
A Dreami Attack
Earlier this month I was doing another unpack and purge of my boxes and bins from our storage room knowing that we will be moving again in March and trying to get ready for a trip to Vancouver to see some doctors at a new Clinic for my hubby. While I was doing that IContinueContinue reading “A Dreami Attack”
Had to Join the Elves!
https://1xmasitemamonth.blogspot.com/2019/01/happy-new-year-roll-call.html While surfing and reading blogs this morning, I came across this! What a fun idea to keep on track for a fun and stress free Christmas. It also works hand in hand with my 2019 Plan to get my UFO List down to nothing and my Projects To Do List done. I’m in forContinueContinue reading “Had to Join the Elves!”
Update!
We got home Tuesday night after a fairly stress free trip. I managed to stay ahead of the snowstorm that was forecast. It was good driving with only one bad stretch with slush and snow through the pass on the Paulson. I think we were both in bed by 8:30! The next morning we hadContinueContinue reading “Update!”
The Next Adventure Begins
Well, we made it to Vancouver today after leaving home yesterday. The trip over the Blueberry Paulson was rough with a lot of snow and very slushy roads. DH took a turn at driving after we got on to clear roads. I took over again at Rock Creek. Just after I started driving the weatherContinueContinue reading “The Next Adventure Begins”
2019 Finish Along
My year has begun with another unpack of my boxes and bins from the storage room to do another sort and purge! Since moving out of the house (3600 sq ft) in October and into a temporary apartment (600 sq ft) I have discovered I don’t have enough space to sort my already put togetherContinueContinue reading “2019 Finish Along”
Good Fortune Mystery Quilt
Is a mystery no longer! Bonnie released the instructions on putting the quilt together and OMG……..it’s a beauty! I have been busy since we got back from our vacation (I will write about that later) getting the last blocks pieced and then starting to put it all together. I had managed to get some ofContinueContinue reading “Good Fortune Mystery Quilt”
Another one done!
Finally one for me to keep! I have been hoarding this fabric ever since Kathleen bought some and showed it to me. I had to make the trip to Kathy’s Quilt Shop in Prince George, BC to get the teal and brown floral, but then lucked out and found the extra fabrics to coordinate with theContinueContinue reading “Another one done!”
