DGD (age 10) came over all last week and on Thursday she decided she wanted to make a tote for herself. So, we played with some patterns and ideas and on Friday she came over and we looked at fabric. I had some fun fabric that I thought she would love, scales that iridescent and really pretty. NO! She wanted something with Valentines on it, so we pulled out my shoebox bin and looked at fabric.
Seriously, I love my DGD, but she is very stubborn. Wonder who she gets that from? 
I showed her the whole overstuffed charms box and we went through it together. She decided that she wanted mainly light colors with not much contrast, but we finally decided on a nice layout with a few darker colors. Tomorrow is President’s Day, so no school and she will be coming over to decide on how to lay out the blocks and hopefully finish it before Tuesday.
I had PT yesterday and only 2 more visits to go. I am at 0-120 degrees and am now working on my balance. I have not sewn as I have been working on getting my blog and a few other computer issues taken care of first.
Today, I have finally gotten my blog together the way I want it after changing themes about 3 or 4 times and I am finally happy with it. This afternoon, while watching a movie, I went through 3 good sized bins and separated all of my orphan blocks and spare parts from other pieces of fabric and they are all nice and neatly put away where I can find them easily.
Tonight I plan to do some more sorting so I can clear my table off. Oh, I do have a top that needs to be sandwiched and readied for the quilter soon.






And here she is with her new Valentine tote!!
