Scrap-Happy March 2022

 Not a lot of time to sew this month.   Did get these two pieces made.


First up was this applique block made with bits and pieces of scraps and remnants.  It was sent off to go into a group quilt that has a theme of cats/dogs/Day of the Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead).
Second piece completed was this quilted postcard. Technically this was done mainly from a kit and a strip from a remnant (the cream background).   But since the largest piece included in the kit was 3" by 4", and the bulk of them were only 1 inch wide for the rays I'm counting it as scraps.   It has been mailed off for a longtime friend who will be celebrating his 70th birthday in early April.

Gratitudes:

1. All my stuff has not been unloaded from the storage containers and is in the Mobile home.   Now comes the work of downsizing some.

2. Contract has been extended to 6 months.

3. New bed has been custom ordered in order to get a bed that will fit the room I'll be using a bedroom.  Should have it in 3-4 weeks.

    Moving is so very difficult! So much stuff that we hang on to for emotional reasons that we don't really need. Hard to part with it - I'm running into that with all my dad's stuff! Ugh! So glad you have a new home, even if it is smaller than what you had in Texas.
