Twists and turns happen in all walks of life to all kinds and ages of people..

Mine has turned towards the good side..

I'm able to plan, and carry out most projects I set myself up for.  Now and then one doesn't come out quite like intended, but it happens.

Thought processes help conclude a project or carry it to the next step and be a lot less exhausting in the mental department, than when on the nasty prescribed med.

We are both feeling so good we are going out fishing most days, have been down to help and 0bserve the fair.   It is small as it is a Lions Club sponsored fair for the Region.

Changes every year make it more interesting and fun to attend.  They also brought in a new Midway company, diff rides, some spruced up with glitter, like the kids cars and trucks.. the glitter seems to catch their attention and make it more fun.

Anyway, life is good, changing and soon I will be able to be post some picts of the projects I'm working on.

Far too many UFO  projects.,  that means:  Un Finished Objects.

Microwave pot holders,
a Stained glass,

A QoV on the frame for one lady and ready to put on another.. nope, I  have the second one on the frame right now.

Readying various quilt tops for quilting.  Some need a border, some need backing, some just need to be done.

Trying to sort and organize the room we keep the fabric in.   Scraps to be cut into strips or squares,
larger pieces, fat eights and larger, in another area or large contaner, and so on.. above FQ s I have tried to locate the smaller pieces, like 1 yard or so in one area and then the mid sizes up to about  3 yards in another then the bigger and backs .

Now and then we have to sort or dig thru, but that is ok, it just really speeds things up when only a FQ is needed to go along with 2 yards of one, and 1 1/2" of another. 

Working on piecing a quilt with alternate 9 patch blocks made of fabric I dyed.. then on to brighter projects, with more planning to them.

Some are pre printed and merely need backing and some plan of action for the quilting..

Some are in construction stages.. need more blocks of one kind or another, need them assembled into the quilt top.   Two of the Mystery Projects are in doing stages.. one needs one last border, the other needs more blocks, and the last set of blocks is Very Labor Intensive.. turn a piece wrong and have to do a lot of unsewing.

enough for today.  I pay to be back every few days from now on..  So much to do, so little time..

God is Good.

God Bless
