Progress Report
Making my first king-size quilt has proven to take longer than I had hoped! I made great progress earlier this spring on this project, but came to a halt in July with too many other summer activities going on. But on Sunday I found my self with a deep need to sew. It's funny how I need that "fix" at the sewing machine. Although it was awesome to move forward on the quilt...note one section above...the best part was that the girls were in the sewing room with me. They cut, glued, colored. I gave them empty boxes, leftover batting, paper cups. They made crowns, coffee cups and pretty boxes. It was fun to watch them work together and alone on their projects.
LOVE it!!! it is going to be fabulous!

My favorite memory as a little girl is playing with her coffee can of buttons while she sewed. The smell of coffee and sewing are forever linked in my mind.
