    I've been posting my progress on a quilt for my granddaughter. Haven't got a lot more done since the last post because of injuries on one hand. But thought I was doing pretty well since she's due the middle of July. Here's my last post. I'm almost finished with the sashing.

    http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-120430-1.htm

    So, I'm going to visit at the end of May. (They live in California, we live in Utah.) Last night I found out I'm invited to a baby shower while I'm there. That gives me less than 2 weeks if I want to finish in time for the shower. YIKES! I'm going to to do my best to get it done but have a backup gift just in case.

    I need all the motivation I can get. Anyone want to join my cheering section. LOL

    If you don't get it done, make a baby's bib or a small wall hanging to coordinate and give it.

    I've seen a few pieces of loose fabric given with a note that it's a sign of what's to come!

    I like both of these ideas.

    Go, girl, go! You can do it!
    If you make it a #1 priority, you'll get it done in time!
    Good luck. Let us know how you do!

    There's no excuse for not getting it done. As soon as you get home get busy. I want pictures in a couple of days showing some progress. I'm watching you!
