May is almost over....

Well, May is about gone, and I think I finished all of the things I wanted to for May for Me.

Here is the quilt I made for the Quilt Book Club. It is all finished and given to the recipient. Fun and easy. I'm looking forward to the next one.


I gave this one to my granddaughter-in-law, Eva, for her graduation. She really liked it. Here's a pic of the label:



And here's a picture of myself, my grandson, Robbie, and other grandson, Cody, with wife Eva and baby, Carter.


I also got the top put together for the May for Me quilt a-long. I love the way this came out.


And lastly, finished today a block for a lotto in my little group, ABCQuilters. It's called Sarah's Block, I think. My sister Patty picked it out, 16" square. Very neat!



Oops!! Forgot one. I made this kite for Carter from a tutorial at Moda Bakeshop. It is so cute, I m going to make one for each of the other great grandkids.


So, I was quite productive this month, doing only things that I wanted to do, but then again, I usually only do what I want to do, lol. Ahhh, retirement.

It's May!!!!!


Well, May is finally here!!!! Now to concentrate on me. That shouldn't be too hard, lol.

I finished quilting 2 charity quilts before today so I could do my favorite part, sewing on binding, during this month.

I'm going to participate in the Mystery Quilt and Stitch Along, and also do a project with the Quilting Book Club.

I decided to read Great Expectations again, for pleasure this time instead of an assignment in high school. Good thing I don't remember any of it. I hope to finish it this month.

I think I will also have a little giveaway sometime during the month. I plan to make up a charm pack out of the leftovers from my Bliss winnings from earlier this year. That fat quarter bundle has really gone a LONG way!!!

So for now, that will be it.

Go see all the others who are participating in the May for Me and see what they will be doing..

Oh, I forgot a big important thing, continuing to stick to the Weight watchers program!!! I have lost 20 pounds so far and want to get to my goal weight by the end of summer. Don't think I can do it all in May, lol.
