I really like the bee quilt.  Need to make one for our quilting bee (The Wee Bee Quilters).

Oh, I must not forget the 400lb pumpkin.

That could make a whole lot of pumpkin pies.

No “C” Template

I still have not found the “C” template, put I did find another that might fit the bill from another pattern that also used the Drunkard’s  Path template.

I know you have seen those little fishes at quilt shows, so I will be using one of the templates from that.  I will still continue to look for my “C”, it will show up when I stop needing it.

I am hoping to start something by tomorrow when I get home, I’ll be looking through my fabric to save time.

I am still having problems with my desk top computer that housed my embroidery software.  I think I might have to break down and get a new computer (which I cannot afford) or buy a new embroidery machine (which I cannot afford) or get one of my girlfriends who have embroidery machines that do not use to embroidery something I need.

Gee wiz, I need a rich man, or a new job.

Until tomorrow
