A Libby in their life.

Garage Sale Find

       Yesterday morning, we biked over to the neighbor’s estate sale. There was  a beautiful tea cup that I saw, but almost didn’t get. I almost left it there because I didn’t want to write it down. 

      

      Josh and I are taking a financial counseling class, and anything we earn or spend this month, we have to record.

And I wasn’t sure I wanted to defend a tea cup purchase on my list. But I did it anyway. 

Do you think it was worth the four dollars?

Hand Quilting

Detail on the back of the quilt

I still don't quilt very straight, but the more I practice the better I become.

African Pieces

Julie and I brought home a bunch of African fabric and it has been sitting at the sewing area for months. So I thought I would put some of it to use.

stripped and chunked

divided into two "strip" stacks

iron the seams

sew the large strips together

and now a small blanket. maybe to be used for picnics?

I was trying to make it kind of like the one Julie has on her bed at Nahumba. Hers is better, but maybe the next one?
