What have I been up to since we returned from Alaska?

On the airplane and during Tom and Brian’s hike at Sikta I worked on the embroidery work on setting blocks for the Generations Unite. I completed 2 1/2 blocks. We also went to an outdoor concert with Nana in the Bronx on Thursday evening and I worked in this block.
I pieced the last block for this quilt. I just have this block and the one above to finish the embroidery work on the main blocks. After I have the top all pieced together I will start to work on embroidering the corners to complete the design.

Work on “Back to School” continues. I finished appliqueing the crayons on the border. The top is ready to quilt. Maybe later this week. That is if I can sneak in some time on George – my daughters are coming for 10 days and they think they are going to use George the entire time. We will have to wait and see. George is excited – he has been lonley the past week or so.

Saturday Tropical Storm Hanna came and dumped on New York and the surrounding areas.


This squirrel was hanging out on our porch during the beginning of the storm. He wasn’t to excited to go out in the rain so tolerated us looking at him close and personal. (He looked like a drowned rat!)

Anita came over for a private class on Thursday.

She has her quilt almost completed for her new grandson. I love the colors that she choose. I think her quilt turned out really nice!

Stay tuned for my next post – the big 100. I have a fun give away planned.
