My daughter makes me proud



I am so proud of my daughter.

 She recently completed her first ever quilt from start to finish. she only could find 2 fat quarters of "US Marine" fabric and a panel. She couldn't really find a pattern she liked so she sat down with some colored pencils and graph paper and designed her OWN!




Her boyfriend recently graduated from boot camp/basic training and she gave him the finished quilt as a graduation present.
Best of Luck to you Luke as you serve our country!

Time to square these blocks up and get them put together!

Ready to try something new!

...not sure about this technology leap,but I will give it a try!

    I have been tossing around the idea of sharing my random creative endeavors,trials,and woes as I progress through this journey of my life. So here goes!
   The above embroidery is an original design of mine.It was done without a drawing or plan or any particular"structured" methods. I  simply was inspired by this phrase attributed to Mother Theresa and intuitively started stitching on dreary,cold snowy evening.
     Now....to decide WHAT to do with it next!
