So far we've had some tomatoes, cucumbers, banana peppers, and jalapeños ripen up. I don't know if it's all the rain we've had or some other factor, but our tomatoes are disappointing this year. It's still early days, maybe they will perk up!<br />Love seeing all your happy red scraps - especially those red string blocks!<br />Angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09365095115416468818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4814262528756246837.post-23971201904120571732021-05-17T07:29:05.474-06:002021-05-17T07:29:05.474-06:00Those disappearing pinwheel blocks are very spiffy...Those disappearing pinwheel blocks are very spiffy!

Please rub some off onto me!<br />I'm loving the pinwheels. The quilt is going to be gorgeous!<br />My daughter and I have recovered from our week long siege of people at the house. It was fun, but I think a limit is a good thing...maybe three days. That way we can all part as friends/family with no bad feelings.<br />As far as my quilting progress...I managed to print out all the patterns I have missed, cut out some of the pieces, and got them organized. My dtr and I went to tour and interview a great little child care center for my grandson. Daughter is going to schedule all of her clients into a few days ,so she can take the little guy maybe three days a week to the day care. We both want him to interact with other children his age and get the clingy side of him rectified. He needs socialization, I need more of my retirement time and my daughter wants/needs to get more work in!<br />Have a wonderful week, I can't wait to see what you are up to this coming week! claudiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16572555442321120647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4814262528756246837.post-36296544461992487022021-05-16T09:26:16.944-06:002021-05-16T09:26:16.944-06:00I'm always so impressed by how much you manage...I'm always so impressed by how much you manage to accomplish.

It's is very old but it's paid for so no complaining. We even still have a land line phone complete with yucky outlet!! I'm 69 and hoping to live out my days here spiffy or not. Hubby (almost 72 yo)wants to tear down this spiffi-less house and have new one built on our acreage but with lumber prices up 280% I don't think that is going to happen. <br /><br />My goodness you have a lot of neat projects going on. I really like those disappearing Pinwheels. I tried making some D9P but didn't like the process of cutting apart, switching parts around and sewing back together. Mainly that was because my cutting apart never seemed to be very accurate. Love those red string blocks with that consistent red gingham center. And that Q4K quilt turned out so cute. I like that backing you pieced and don't find it hideous at all. Looking forward to your column quilt. You have some great ideas.Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12793711897790110579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4814262528756246837.post-53611074577458718262021-05-15T14:26:33.609-06:002021-05-15T14:26:33.609-06:00Another productive week!

Can’t believe how much you and Bruce fit into your week, I do like the way you add a solid colour (this month red) to your multi coloured String blocks quilts. It really works, makes a focus to all those varied string blocks.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05139897702169696195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4814262528756246837.post-72466249217169959232021-05-15T14:03:36.364-06:002021-05-15T14:03:36.364-06:00I see you did a bit of a reno!

No quilt room reno necessary tho. I will just keep on sewing!<br />Love all your red, you inspire me to make a list of my RSC blocks, but first I must bind!<br />Thank you for sharing!Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14937316977935542600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4814262528756246837.post-86760245874283976522021-05-15T13:24:17.367-06:002021-05-15T13:24:17.367-06:00So much great stuff happening at your house!

When our granddaughter and family lived with us the last 2 months of 2019 and the first 2 months of 2020, then packed up a van and moved to Florida...we were left with the stuff that wouldn’t fit in the van! Winter gear, personal cosmetics etc. still here and now I have more treasures from my sister’s house! Downsizing is on our list too! I’m 11 years older than you, so I’d bet get a move on!
