We have another family dinner today with our son, his wife and their three sons. Jeannine has been doing a 35-session round of radiation for breast cancer and is one-third of the way through. What is my offering to her? A RunAround bag of course. She gets her choice of these three (middle fabric came from Scotland!). I am excited to put away my zippers temporarily and begin work on big things. I have a box of Marcia Derse fabrics, and I think I know the direction I want to go in with these fabrics. The goal is a new bed quilt for us. And youngest grandson Ben (mentioned above) has not had his quilt. Ben's a basketball fan and wants a Bulls quilt with perhaps a bit of the Hawks in it. Notice the Kona card so I can find just that perfect shade of red. Sure hope it isn't the Kona named "Lipstick." Somehow that would just be wrong for Ben's sports-themed quilt...
These will go back into their box. |
And these are coming out to play! |
