What I Did for Love

Here is the quilted Wall Hanging I am entering for the Arts East Exhibit in February. The theme is "What I Did for Love". We get full price this time. It is paper pieced with vintage charms on it, a watch face, a love bug pin, one of those American flag pins from safety pins, a life Scout pin, a key pin and key hole. I stitched Chocolate, family and service in the white spaces.

I also am just about finished my BOM (block of the month) Fairy Tales, one block to go. I am a year behind... I used as many buttons as I could find instead of sewing as I really like buttons. I need a mushroom button for Red Riding Hood. Click on the block to make it bigger and see if you can guess the Fairy Tale that goes with the block. It is a fun game!

Rose Red and Snow White, Red Riding Hood, the Brave Little Taylor, Jorinda & Joringel, Sleeping Beauty, Snow White, Rapunzel, the Frog Prince & Cinderella. I also need a shoe button for her block on the stairs. I am working on Rumpelstiltskin and then it will be finished. ta dah!

Anniversary

We went to Boise yesterday, to the Temple in the am.

Bruce had a training with Elder Gary Walker, the Mission president, Elder Ronald Rasband, of the Seventies and the Temple President. They had a discussion and then were open for questions. Bishop got to ask his question. They were told to come home and kiss their wives and thank them for all the sacrifice we give! I am loving that counsel!

They asked us not to post the info from the meeting, it was for bishop's to help them with their callings.

I had to force myself to go shopping while Bishop was at his training meetin'. I found the DI, Jo Anns and Ross! Yes I am a material girl...

We went out to Sizzler after the meetings & shopping & then drove home, roads were good.

We temporarily misplaced the cell phone. Bruce found it when he went to bed, he had rolled it up in his jammies. I got lost in the fog trying to get back to the meeting house. I thought only people with Alzheimer's did those kind of things...

oh well we get three mistakes a day and then we have to take a nap... & start all over again!
