I've got nothing to say, but it's ok

I haven't really had much to write about lately. But I've checked my stats and see that people have been checking day after day for an update. So this will be one of those posts that has lots of topics while simultaneously being about nothing. Consider yourself warned.

I've gotten out of the habit of showing mail goodies I receive because I don't want you thinking I'm just in this for the loot. But this week Brian and I received a package from one of the classes at Memorial Road full of goodies that we can't get here. I definitely see some baking in my near future.

Last year, one of the ladies at Memorial Road sent us a beautiful quilt. I wanted to show it to you right away, but she was also sending quilts to the other families and I didn't want to ruin the surprise for them. One family still hasn't received a quilt, but they found out about the quilts, so I think it's safe to show it to you now. The fabric is called "Vienna Nights", so it's a natural fit.

One day I'm going to give quilting a try. I'll start out with a baby quilt or maybe a lap quilt. But I would love to make something like this one day.

I've been doing a little sewing lately. But I'm not going to show you any of it yet. Maybe next week.

I've also started a new hobby. I guess you can call it a hobby. But I'm not going to tell you about it today either. I've got use these little cliffhangers so you'll come back! And I'm sure it's posts just like this one that keep you coming back for more.

You little tease!

That is a gorgeous quilt! I love it!

When you decide to make your first quilt, let me know, and I'll make a baby who can use it. ;)

Gina, I'm not going to take your baby just so I'll have something to put in my quilt, if that's what you're suggesting. Is that what you're suggesting?

Well, I was actually thinking of taking your quilt so I could have something to put my baby in...but there are days when your version is pretty appealing!
