Yesterday was a busy day , but I did manage to install the new rails on my Little Gracie. Spent most of the day visiting at the hospital with Mom and talking to the doctors. She is in good spirits, but is very tired. Testing scheduled for 11 this morning. Hopefully everything will be fine. The sewing room has been reorganized and looks pretty good. New cubicles (daughters idea) did the trick. Here are pictures of the latest quilts I promised to post.

Today is Wednesday, April 27, 2011. I've been away for a little awhile, but not far. I have been working on creating my background for this blog and finishing up a few quilting projects. Last night was a long night as we spent most of it in the emergency room with my mother. Didn't get home until 1:30am. Hopefully everything will be back to normal in a few days when we get her back home. Today I plan to put new tracks on my Little Gracie quilting system. I have been quilting on my domestic sewing machine while waiting for the rails to arrive. I will be glad to get them on as I have a few larger projects that need quilting. I will post a few photos of my latest projects. Most are smaller and more of an "artsy" nature. They were fun to assemble and to let the creative juices flow to help decide how to quilt. I love to learn how to do new techniques and never tire of a challenge. It seems that spring is finally trying to make its way to Massachusetts. It was a long winter and most folks are anxious for sunshine and warmer days.

A note of thanks to Carena for her great digital scrapbook bundle Red Rose Romance from which elements were used to create my blog site.
