Crazy Quilting

I've been working on a crazy quilt pillow. It's a donation for the Give a Little Foundation which is a non-profit organization that assists residents of Yamhill County in Oregon, who find themselves in a financial crisis. I've done a few crazy quilt projects and forget how much I enjoy it. I find it very creative and it's hard to stop adding stitches. The title of the fundraiser is Amazing Lace. The organizers are displaying a lace collection from 1600-1900.That will be fun to see.

We had a busy weekend with a Gelbrich family BBQ on Saturday with 25 attending and a PEO BBQ on Sunday with 21 attending. They just happened to fall on the same weekend and it didn't work to change either one. I took a nap on Monday!

I entered a quilt in the local county fair. It didn't even win a ribbon. I got notification yesterday that my quilt was accepted in the AQS Des Moines show. I felt better about not winning a fair ribbon.

My Mom isn't doing well. Seems to be running a fever with some sort of infection. She went through a lot of tests yesterday so hopefully they'll find the cause and get her on the mend.

Hope you're all doing well. Happy Quilting..Peggy
