Quilting

 I've done some changing up in my quilting room preparing for something big and exciting.  No, not a new quilt published (haven't had one published in about two years now 😔) but something fun for my quilting hobby.  The hubby and I went to the Paducah quilt show a few weeks ago and enjoyed all the beautiful quilts, fabrics, sewing products our eyes let us see. We also enjoyed some good times with old friends.  

I'm currently waiting on the shirts for two memory quilts, so I am struggling to find some smaller projects to do to improve my skills.  I made another Elizabeth Hartman animal design and quilted it on my friend's Bernina machine.

I love her animal patterns.  No paper piecing and really not too difficult.

I made a mini version of my Edinburgh Square pattern as a table runner or wall hanging.  Still need to quilt it.

On our way to Paducah a few weeks ago we stopped for lunch at a great little place called Patti's.

And here is our little grandson upon his graduation from pre-school.  He is so excited about getting to go to Kindergarten next fall.

Race and Hair

 My daughter in law and I recently did a local 5k in support of the Kennedy Ladd Foundation.  Kennedy is a precious little girl with Hurler's syndrome, a debilitating genetic condition. Her little brother Lincoln, also has it.  The community we live in is very supportive of their family. Check out their website and consider donating for a cure.

The hair is still growing!  I"m loving these crazy silver curls. How long (or big) will it get? No one knows.  :)  

I poofed it out really good just to see how big it was. Pretty big.
