I finally finished the dog I was making for my friend. She asked me to make it look like a dog her friend had to put down. Now thats its finished, she has asked me to make 2 more for the daughters. This dog is huge and bigger then a gallon of milk. So I will be working on these for a little while lol!

That dog is adorable Krista. What a beautiful way for them to remember their fur baby.

Thanks everyone. I have struggled a little bit with liking the dog. I think because I looked at it for so long from working on it, that I actually hated it. But I am glad it's growing on me.

I have been sewing so much lately that I may need to select a couple of new projects out of the UFO box! Things are getting done around here at a high speed! Yippee! I am so excited that I am so productive1
Plus, I am getting hand sewing and embroidery projects finished as I am sitting and watching Stanley Cup Playoffs! Woo Hoo! Can't wait to see how much I can get done as playoffs progress! I am working on Stitching and Crafting badges at the same time. So much fun that I don't think that I can stand it. But, I always say that a person can't have too much fun!

Very cute dog, Krista.
Getting UFOs done always makes me feel a bit better about all my projects, Nancy.

I've been trying to do some Spring Cleaning - getting rid of magazines, books, rubber stamping supplies, etc., that I don't think I will need anymore. I want to donate books I've read to a/the library - I read somewhere that there is no point to save them once you have read them, and I have quite a few boxes of books. I don't like getting rid of an author's books that I like, but can always go to the library if I want to read one again. And - I remember having to donate most of my mother's extensive shelves of books to 2 libraries after she passed away.
I am checking with a local Christian school, the high school and senior center first. The senior center is also a great place for jigsaw puzzles.

I recently cleared several shelves of books lately too. Very true -- if I want to read them again I can go to the library. Most likely I won't want to read them; there's too many books in the world I haven't read yet. It's funny how your books are a kind of security but you feel lighter when you get rid of them.
I have been sewing a lot. I've finished 11 of my UFO's for the guild for the year, led the mystery quilt program, and discovered the 3-yard quilt books that have me finally making a dent in my fabric stash.

I love your quilt, Judith.
Maybe I need to get one of the 3-yard quilt books to use up some of my stash.

So happy to see you quilting again Judith! Beautiful as always! I've been working on badges, but my sewing machine is calling my name, along with some apron patterns...

Here is another one of the 3 yard quilts. They are easy and quick to make. I don't need anymore quilts; my closets are full but the guild has a charity program I make them for.

OOHH! I like that pattern. That would look great with red, green, and white or gold for Christmas!

Judith, that quilt is stunning! Those colors and designs are very beautiful.
Nancy, I sure have been trying lol! Right now is dance competition season for my daughter, so I don't spend much time at home at the moment. I do pack some crochet in my car for when I have some waiting time. Once May arrives I will be good to go again.

I understand dance competition season! Two Granddaughters are dancers. The older one is teaching now. The younger one is not competing this year. But the Grandson is keeping us busy with travel hockey. He is traveling around trying out for Junior teams. And...that's why we pack projects in go bags! May, here we come!
