The snowstorm finally got here last night! We have about 7" of snow, the last that I checked. Of course my car will not go out of the driveway. But that is fine, got food and Diet Pepsi, so I can take it!!! LOL!
On the machine quilting front.....nothing new except, the customer quilt that I showed is still on the frame! :( I should have had it finished a few days ago, but I am so nervous about getting to the end, so afraid that I will run out of backing. It will be real close!!! So my goal for tomorrow is to finish that quilt!!! I can't get out to go to church so I am going to try to finish this up....hopefully.
Earlier I was looking through photos that I have stored on my computer and found this top that I pieced a while back. It is called, Boxy Stars, from Bonnie Hunter. I love the pattern, makes a great scrap quilt! Anyway, when I get to quilt one of my own tops, I think this is the one that I want to do first! I'm not even sure if I have a border on it or not! If not, then I want to add one before I quilt it. Not sure what design I will use either but I'll decide that later.
My sister, Chantal, spent the night last night! Been a while since she stayed here. She and mom live on the property that connects to ours. Mom left for work yesterday and Chantal spent the night here in case the power went out from the snow. We have a fireplace for heat and they do too, but mom doesn't use hers much. She is staying again tonight! Speaking of mom...she went work yesterday, got on the boat, started unpacking her things and could not find her diabetes medicine!!! I drove to her house and there the bottle sat on her bathroom sink!!! So Richard and I jumped in the car and took it down to the office. They were supposed to get it to her today but today they said it would be tomorrow!!! She really should not be without this medication!!! Just worries me! Kristie

Such a pretty quilt...that would be a great way of using up scraps..and most people have many of them.
I know what you mean about getting the medicine to your Mother...she needs it on a regular basis..if her sugar drops or soars it can make her sick...or at least it does my sweet man....course with diabetics this can happen even taking their meds.
Stay dry and warm...we have bad weather here too!
Kristie, that is a very pretty quilt. I thought about making it too, but haven't got around to it yet. I hope your mom does ok till they can get her medicine to her. Have a good weekend. Winona
