Some of This; Some of That

Destashing report:  I sandwiched a commissioned quilt top I finished and used 3.58 yds.  Then I made a back for a neonatal quilt for another 0.64 yd.  I made a bunch of HSTs for my yellow RSC blocks  - 0.22 yd out.  That's a total of 4.44 yds and a YTD total of 33.81 yds toward the 38 yards I need to reach my goal in December.

As to those tops, I'm quilting them now, and it will take up most of the days before Friday when my Mom and I and DIL go to a quilt retreat.  
This was our view on the way to our room last year. We're going back to the same place in Temecula Valley wine country for the retreat.  We always have a great time and the food is divine.

Sadly, another dear friend's 47 year old son is in ICU gravely, gravely ill.  Please pray for Matt.

Life is short in the whole scheme of things. Be grateful for every day you have. Hope you get to quilt today.  In between quilt sessions I plan to hand stitch some Bliss hexagons.

I'm linking to Slow Sunday Stitching, Oh Scrap, and Sunday Stash.  See you there.

 Sighhhh....  While I was quilting I  ran my finger, somehow, under the needle. Went right through my left index fingernail right through to...
