Wednesday Ramblings

Doesn't seem like I'm getting much done the last few days.  Searched for my brown fabric to make a little more binding for my UFO, but haven't found it yet.   And then I got distracted by some Christmas fabric, I'll let you know if anything comes of THAT!  But today I packaged up my Bricks and Stepping Stones quilt, bet you didn't know I had a home in mind for it quite some time ago. 

This is my brother in law Paul.  See, he is using that quilt already!  He likes quiet evenings reading, and needed this quilt to snuggle with.  He always tells me he is my FAVORITE brother in law!  

Now my poor sister will have to ask Paul to share his quilt, as I haven't made her one.  But, I think he will share.  And while I was at their house, do you know what I saw?  

Yes, another blooming Holiday Cactus!!  I love those peach blossoms.  My sister has quite a green thumb, the backyard is full of flowers and vines and all sorts of plants. Paul is quite the gardener too, he has to dig all the holes!


Lots of errands planned for tomorrow.  Maybe I will find that brown fabric........

Here I thought you made a quilt for Santa (a skinny one, but he DOES have a couple more days to fatten up. LOL) He looks very comfy!
