Happy New Year
One of my top 3 resolutions for this year is to post a lot more often here on my blog to keep track of what it is I'm doing in my quilting (crafting) life. Another of the resolutions was to finish some of the UFO's I have putting aside in "The Box", maybe not all but hopefully many.
So lets begin. I did take a baggy out of "The Box New Years Eve starting the new year on the right foot.
I did intentionally take a very small project so I could have a great feeling of accomplishment. These are mug rugs I started maybe 2 years ago for a demo I did for my guild.
I have also started another project. It started as a Leader/Ender project solely to use the triangles I keep acquiring while making masks.
They will be used in making the REMAINDERS quilt using the pattern from Amanda Jean Nyberg's book NO SCRAP LEFT BEHIND. I did make a quilt using this pattern a couple of years ago and just loved it.
I have also pulled my fabrics for the upcoming hop Hearts on Fire see that button up there on the right. The requirements for this hop are to include some kind of heart and it can't be RED. I realize that one of the choices in the picture looks red but it is in actuality a really great orange. Trust me on that.
Retirement has given me great opportunity to belong to several organizations that do a lot of charitable/fund raising crafting throughout the year. This year I want to keep track of how much of this type of thing I am doing. So every non hop post will end with a list of the regularly made items that I have done and turned in since the previous post. The list will include the following:
I do a lot with Operation Shoe Box, an organization that sends goodie boxes to our troops. I work with 3-4 different groups within the organization. I make macramé bracelets that are included in the boxes. I print note cards with Patriotic themes that others hand write notes in for each box that goes out the door.
I work with their fund raiser group who make goodies to sell to raise money for shipping these boxes out. For them I make masks, zip pouches, key fobs etc. Anything small that will tempt someone to donate to the cause.
Another group is Abundance of Love who make yarn items for Hospital patients, hats, scarves, and items to sell for shipping costs. I crochet hats.
And then there is my Quilt guild chapter. As a group we do preemie quilts for one of the large Orlando Hospitals. We make these tiny, 11 or 17 inch squares, that are very lightly quilted themed quilts for Easter, 4th of July, Halloween and Christmas. The hospital schedules first photos for these occasions for these little ones. Our quilts are wonderful backdrops and memories for their first holiday photos. We also make dog/cat beds for the local animal shelter.
Throughout the year TQPM sends out requests for small shelter quilts for shelters in need. Usually because they are covering for areas with major natural disasters such as fires and floods. More information can be found on this project at the link.

Well you've sure started 2021 on the right foot! I do believe I recognize those appliquéd shapes! :-) What a great way to finish them. If you'll send me pictures of them, I'll be sure to add them to our CFMQG show and tell next Monday evening. Pics would be a good reminder of that meeting workshop. Thank you! Love what you're doing with all those triangles too. No waste, right? I remember the quilt you made from Amanda Jean's book. That IS a good book. Enjoy your Hearts on Fire project. Oddly enough, I have NEVER liked the heart shape, and avoid them at all costs. But that's what makes quilting universally enjoyed... we can each create and make whatever we want. Keep up the good work!
ReplyDeleteHello, I am Theresa Williams After being in relationship with Anderson for years, he broke up with me, I did everything possible to bring him back but all was in vain, I wanted him back so much because of the love I have for him, I begged him with everything, I made promises but he refused. I explained my problem to my friend and she suggested that I should rather contact a spell caster that could help me cast a spell to bring him back but I am the type that never believed in spell, I had no choice than to try it, I mailed the spell caster, and he told me there was no problem that everything will be okay before three days, that my ex will return to me before three days, he cast the spell and surprisingly in the second day, it was around 4pm. My ex called me, I was so surprised, I answered the call and all he said was that he was so sorry for everything that happened that he wanted me to return to him, that he loves me so much. I was so happy and went to him. That was how we started living together happily again. Since then, I have made a promise that anybody I know that has a relationship problem, I would be of help to such a person by referring him or her to the only real and powerful spell caster who helped me with my own problem. His email: {drogunduspellcaster@gmail.com} you can email him if you need his assistance in your relationship or any other Case.

How to get your ex back fast! I was hurt and heart broken when a very big problem occurred in my marriage seven months ago, between me and my husband . so terrible that he took the case to court for a divorce. he said that he never wanted to stay with me again, and that he didn't love me anymore. So he packed out of the house and made me and my children passed through severe pain. I tried all my possible means to get him back, after much begging, but all to no avail. and he confirmed it that he has made his decision, and he never wanted to see me again. So on one evening, as i was coming back from work, i met an old friend of mine who asked of my husband .So i explained every thing to him, so he told me that the only way i can get my husband back, is to visit a Dr, because it has really worked for him too. So i never believed in spell, but i had no other choice, than to follow his advice. Then he gave me the Email address of the Dr whom he visited.poweroflovespell@gmail.com.So the next morning, i sent a mail to the address he gave to me, and the Dr assured me that i will get my husband back the next day. What an amazing statement!! I never believed, so he spoke with me, and told me everything that i need to do. Then the next morning, So surprisingly, my husband who didn't call me for the past 7 months, gave me a call to inform me that he was coming back. So Amazing!! So that was how he came back that same day, with lots of love and joy, and he apologized for his mistake, and for the pain he caused me and my children. Then from that day, our relationship was now stronger than how it were before, by the help of a love Dr. So, i will advice you out there if you have any problem contact Dr adebayo odu, i give you 100% guarantee that he will help you.. Email him at: poweroflovespell@gmail.com or WhatsApp him on +2347055287754.
