"SALE" sign.

I saw this SALE sign in front of a store in Albany the other day.  I thought it was so cute~~handmade and all.  I love that the letters are f different designs.  I didn't go in.  I don't need one more thing for my house for me at this point in time.

The Quilt

A newly finished quilt for Quilts for Cops.  

I wanted to get a pic of this quilt that was a little more creative than just photographing it.  I did take those kinds of images but then decided to make this image.  

How appropriate to have a quilt at the ready at a fire pit.

A Work In Progress

Many months ago I started these squares to use for a baby blanket, with no one in mind so there's no hurry to finish it.

In the meantime I got busy with other projects and just haven't gotten my umph back to finish it.  One of these days I'll get motivated.  I don't need very many more squares.

Then I'll have to spend some time figuring out the color combination and I'll be wondering why I didn't just make all the squares the same color.

Quilts for Cops

For the past 9 or 10 months I've been getting together with a friend once a week to work on quilts we're making.  One of her friends (who I also know) is part of a national organization called Quilts for Cops.  Volunteers from all over the United States make quilts which are then donated to police and first responders who have been injured in the line of duty. 

The friend started a local chapter.  Seven of us attended the first 3 sewing days.  Shortly, 7 quilts will be sent to 7 recipients.  How exciting to be part of a group offering tangible comfort to those in need.  The quilts are beautiful.  

Just one of the complete quilts.
