This is what I have done since I quit my job the last week of April

Minnesotans will be "loony" for the first quilt. The Loon is the Minnesota State Bird. Love those birds! Besides which, we are all loony here anyhow. Beautiful work. I am jealous!!!! I haven't had time to do much of anything the past four/five months. Mom (age 96-1/2) had go to the permanent extended care, my husband passed away in March and I have been trying like heck to keep a semblance of normalcy around here. Learning how to live alone is something else - first thing was a steel door with a five foot deadbolt lock (only kidding about the five feet), but I feel safer. Then I got a fence for the back yard (son seems to think I am too old (74-1/2) to go chasing around the neighborhood for a ten year old dog - I think he knew I wanted a fence anyhow). Then we had three robberies on our block in two weeks, so I got two motion lights. So now I am as snug as a bug in a rug, but still have a lot of adapting to do. My neighbor helped me make five plate rails for over my living room and sewing/front room windows. 59 cup and saucer sets. Love it! Keep up the good work. I hope to get there fairly soon. Edie

Would you be willing to share your stars pattern? I would love to make that for our "Operation Forever Grateful" program that our county fair sponsors every year. We donate quilts to soldiers.It's truly a beautiful pattern and I love it. But, now I'm thinking it would also be good in a scrappy type. You are amazing. Yep, you had some pent up creativity.
Thanks for sharing.
