It's been a while since I've chatted, but I have been skimming the posts once in a while. After a few years of just bad things happening one after the other, the past year has been great - keeping me very busy but with good things.
My Granddaughter is now a year old and brings me immeasurable pleasure. Although they live in Virginia, we visit them often. In fact we are just back from a week there.
In November, my younger daughter was married in a beautiful ceremomy in Southern Maryland. She and her husband live about an hour from my granddaughter.
Then just this past week, my older daughter was a 3 day champion on Jeopardy! If you're a watcher, she is Marissa. We are so proud of her.
In between all this, I have been mostly making baby quilts, although I did just finish piecing a small Winding Ways for myself. I am no longer scared of curved piecing! I have ordered some fabrics from the new Dr. Seuss line and have to come up with something to show case them. I have enough for a baby quilt and a big girl quilt.
I want to send well wishes for the New Year to everyone. For those who have been having a rough time this year, hoping next year helps to heal.
