1 Feb: Goodness! I can’t believe how much time has gone by. It has been almost a month since my last posting. Shame on Me! Surprisingly enough, I have been working on Vi’s quilt. I have finished 3 more blocks and I am almost done with the last one. But, I have finally admitted to myself that this quilt will not be done by mid-March. I still have a lot of sashings to finish. I won’t even mention the two large borders that I need to quilt and do not have a pattern picked out of either one of them. Then there is the binding left to do………Well, I suppose it would be a better gift to give at Christmas time than at the beginning of spring time.

I made some Chicken Tortilla Soup so I could spend more time outside.  Looks pretty enough to quilt!  LOL!

With all the news of bad ice and snow storms up north, I decided I should be showing my appreciation by being outside enjoying this beautiful Key West weather. So, I have been doing a lot of applique work while sitting outside with my cats in our screen house. It is like having my own screened in porch plus I have lots of sunlight for my work. We have been dry camping for the past 3 weeks and we need to conserve our energy. I’m doing my part! Only Dusty and Hitch will sit out there with me.

5 Feb: Great news! We moved to full hook-ups as of yesterday and we are right on the water! Gorgeous Day today so I was outside again. I spent the day pinning two small tops together. I had to fight the wind a little bit, but I got them done. Tomorrow, I hope to quilt them.
