Every year I’m caught off guard by how much the busyness of
the season drains my energy and cuts into my quilting time. Consequently, there is very little progress to
show since my last post, and I think this week will be at least as busy with PT
three times, a dentist appointment, and two parties, one of which is out of
town.
My collection of hexie flowers for my Homage to Mutti
project has grown to 10. I have to pace
myself on these or my hand starts to hurt.
I want to delay getting another shot in my thumb for as long as I
possibly can.
Some assembly has also begun on my Thrift Meets Scrappy
Challenge.
My brother-in-law in Wisconsin sent this picture to me Sunday
before last. He headed south the next
day and spent some time with us on his way to far South Texas where he will
stay through the end of March. I can't say I blame him.
Here is a fairly recent picture of Ollie in my lap. He was so sleepy he could hardly keep his
eyes open.

The tree is so pretty with snow on all of the branches. This is definitely early winter for us up north.
I really love your "thrift" quilt. It reminds me of how pretty a consistent, attractive fabric is between scrappy blocks. Two parties! Hope there will be good food. ;) I hope you can keep going awhile with no shot to your thumb. Ollie looks so sweet.
You just described me every year in December - caught off guard. And I can remember thinking in October that I had so much time! So no, I haven't gotten much of anything done that I had planned to get done, and yes it drains the energy. We will get our decorations up today, then off to a doctor tomorrow, so 2 days of no sewing room.
the seasons drain the energy - I still have some decorating to do and I keep wondering why I am bothering I know hubs could care less and wouldn't bother if it wasn't for me - he is not a great helper for this.
