Oh, Baby!


Remember the baby quilt I was working on earlier in the week?  Finished!  Yay!  Just in time for the baby shower on Friday afternoon.  As I type this, I've thrown the quilt into the washer and I hope to get it into the dryer shortly--I just love that crinkly look that washing and drying gives to a quilt.  The backing I used for this is a woven yellow brushed cotton, so it feels much like flannel but a little lighter in weight.  I think the parents-to-be will like it.

I've been doing some thinking these past couple months about my daily blog writing, and while I truly enjoy doing it, by Friday night I'm usually so tired from the work week that writing is a struggle.  Most of the time, I come home on Friday evenings--and many times I stop and do the week's grocery shopping on the way--and all I feel like doing is relaxing and not thinking about anything or doing much, and that means there's very little subject matter for a blog post.  So, unless something happens and I just can't stand to wait any longer to tell you about it, I think I'm going to take Friday nights off--which means no Saturday morning blog post.  Of course, for the rest of the week, I'll carry on with my daily blog posting, so I hope--for those of you who tell me you look forward to reading this blog each day or each week--there should be enough to read, but if not, just sleep in a little later on Saturday mornings.  Because you KNOW I'm all about sleeping later on Saturday mornings, right?  Happy quilting!

You are very quick with your quilting & I am the opposite. I spend more time looking at I other people's projects than doing my own! You certainly deserve Friday evening REST!! I enjoy your blog!

I enjoy reading your blog Kim, but don't feel you have to write every day! Blogging should not be a chore for anyone, but a chance to share. I understand the exhausted feeling of Friday nights, or any night really!
