I would definitely post more often if I could do so on my iphone or ipad... the downloading of photos taken on my iphone from the cloud to my laptop is a royal pain. Anyway, my younger son and his wife are expecting their second child, our second grandchild the first week of August. And this is the first girl baby in my family in years- almost generations!! I am BEYOND excited for our family of males to get a little injection of ESTROGEN!! So, I've been making some little charm pack utility baby quilts for her!!</b></span><br />

One of my favorite Bible type movies. Do you like to watch the old epic movies?</span><br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">My husband and I had just gotten over a bout of bronchitis and sinus infections when he brought home new germs from his office! Ugh! Now we are both coughing and sneezing again!! Yuck!</span><br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I have a few projects I can show you and many which are gifts, that I can't yet!! I made up a very old fabric panel into a little Christmas tree quilt that my grandson Neal can decorate and undecorate and redecorate. </span><br />

<span style="color: blue; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I love making little things like this up, in between bigger quilts. Sometimes, it's so nice how quickly some things can be finished up!!</span><br />

Do you make New Year Resolutions? I used to, years ago. Now, I simply think of things I want to accomplish and how to go about getting them done. And I always do some reorganizing and clearing out/cleaning out. I really love that part. So far this new month and year, I've reorganized and cleaned out my kitchen pantry. I'm surprised at how long it took me and how much out of date food was lurking in there! Ugh!! I also added a new LED light strip in there that charges via USB. I added one a few years ago in our coat closet and it is sooooo helpful!</b></span><br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><b>In my sewing room, I had five full old really big - 5" wide, three ring binders full of designs and patterns I saved from 15 years of quilt magazines sitting in my cupboard. They were so big and heavy and unwieldy with my non-existent hand grip, that I never dug them out and used them. My friend Suzanne told me she took all her big binders and broke them out and switched them out into smaller ones. GREAT IDEA!!! I got a bunch of 1.5" wide binders from Amazon, and spent a few days going through all my old binders and reorganized them into smaller ones that now fit on my open book shelves, where they are in easy reach!! I threw out over half the stuff I had collected over the years. Sometimes our likes change over time... haven't you found that to be true with you, too? Do you reorganize stuff in your home and sewing room in January?</b></span><br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><b>I have some things to share that I made the last bit of 2018! Most were gifts that I couldn't share before Christmas! I'm in two bees, so I made some small things for gifts for these dear fiends...and of course, I forgot to take photos of some of them. But I did take a photo of some little embroidered needle minders...designed by Kathy Schmitz.</b></span><br />

I'm Back!!<span style="color: blue; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>I know, I know! It's been so long since I posted....but in my defense, my old laptop was a royal pain to use...took FOREVER to boot up and was often quite uncooperative! It does seem unfair that laptops aren't made to last very long! I got that one when I retired, which was only 6 years ago and its practically obsolete!! Anyhoo, I finally finished researching brands and options and bought a new one! And it's so small and light, it can fit in a purse!! Love it!! Took me a few days to go through all my photos and files on my old one, and clean out and delete a bunch. But, I'm up and running!! Yay!! The only bother is that I take all my photos with my iPhone these days, and the iCloud app for PC's does not work well! UGH! So it's a bit of a workaround to get the photos onto my laptop for posting here.. oh well! I hope to post lots more often now! No excuses, right?</b></span><br />

<span style="color: blue; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">So, my DH bought it secretly before Thanksgiving during the "get-a-free-sewing-cabinet-deal" was going on!! Smart man!! I'm still waiting to hear when the new cabinet will be delivered, so for now it is sitting atop my old sewing table...waaaay too big for that space. I've had to figure out how to rearrange my little sewing room to accommodate the newer larger cabinet. I had to move my Handiquilter Sweet Sixteen Sit-down machine out to another room and rearrange some other furniture. When the new cabinet comes in, and everything is resettled, I'll take lots of pix and do a new sewing room reveal post!!</span></div>

<span style="color: blue; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">and <a href="http://beeinmybonnetco.blogspot.com/2017/07/bee-happy-sew-along-guide-is-ready.html" target="_blank">Lori Holt's new "Bee Happy" quilt</a>. She does her applique by hand, but I will be doing fusible machine applique... and it's taking forever to trace all the shapes needed to get started! I decided to do her new sewalong because I have tons of Farm Girl Vintage fabrics leftover to use up... and because it's just so cute!!</span><br />

<span style="color: blue; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Our local Piedmont Modern Quilt Guild had a challenge for us to use the colors we dislike and avoid using in a small quilted project. Well, my least favorite colors are yellow and brown...</span><br />
