Tuesday...time for a new quilt block

And time for me to get back into that sewing room and make some more!!!


One of the Just takes 2 patterns from February.  I had trouble making this and adjusted the pattern a bit.  I don't think I'll be making this block again!

I'm linking up with Connie at Quilting by the River.
Edited to add: And I'm linking up to a new (to me) interesting linky party: Quilt Story.

Friday fragments Feb. 25

Mommy's Idea

It's Friday Fragments time!

It's Friday again!  Where did the week go?  I did get work done at school but then there are a number of things undone.

****
I have a cold, just a plain old cold but it is hard to breathe, I am so stuffed up.  I am giving my self time to rest and let hubby chase the kids, and I do not feel guilty about this.  This may seem like a small thing, but normally for this perfectionist I would have to be half-dead before taking a nap and letting things go.

***
I take my work laptop home every night to do, well, more work, and my own stuff, like put up blog posts.  It has always been able to connect to our home router to connect to the internet wirelessly.  Except last night it didn't and today it didn't.  I don't know what is wrong with it and it is most annoying. 

***
Excitement and despair (both!) in the house of Viridian.  Second son called a weekly paper for a chance to be a paperboy, was interviewed, and got the position!  He is so excited and proud! Younger sister, who hoped to also get  a route (but did not call the paper) was also there when the newspaper man visited our house.  However there is only one route in our neighborhood.  She was absolutely devastated and in tears (did I mention she is a pre-teen?) for hours.  2 days later she is better but it still hurts, I can tell.

Are you a sewing or quilty sort of person?  Then you might want to enter my giveaway. I have been blogging for 4 years!!!!  See this post for details on how you might win some pretty pink fabric.

Hello!  Goodness,  it's my 4th blogiversary, I've been blogging for 4 years!  Doesn't seem that long at all.  Let's have a giveaway to celebrate.

I have for you a selection of fat quarters and fat eighths of fabric in pinks, and one green, and two spools of Gutermann thread (polyester).  This was purchased for a project I know I'll never have time for, so it is going to move on to a new home - maybe yours.


To enter my giveaway contest, just leave a comment to this post to enter.  tell me about your day so far, or how you might use this fabric.

  I will use a list randomizer at Random.org to pick a winner!
Contest open now until noon on Thursday March 1. 

Really important:  Make sure I have a way to contact you.  If your email is not available on your blogger profile or whatever then please leave your email in the text of your message.  If you win, I need to contact you for your address.
Good luck!
