Small Change


I don't know if it's the cooler temperature today (a glorious 68 degrees) or the little nap I took, but I'm feeling better than I have in quite some time. These "good days" are infrequent and I revel in the small victories they allow.


I was inspired to share this Chinese Coins doll quilt today by Libby, who recently stitched one of her own. In true scrap quilt fashion, this was made with cast-off trimmings from another quilt. Do you find it as hard as I do to throw those little bits away? It may be hard to see the cable quilting in that blue fabric.

  1. Okay . . . I can only laugh at the thought of dozing off during a Senate hearing *s* I'm so glad to hear that you are feeling well. I do hope it continues.
    Love that little quilt . . . I hope to layer and begin quilting soon.

  2. Hi Diane, I'm glad this cool weather has been good for you. Your cable stitching looks great, as all of your hand quilting does.
    Kathy, Sue, and Janice sewed with me today, Betsy and Mike joined for lunch.
