Donation Day

Here is some more eye candy on the Tilda Samplers...


I worked until past 8:00 last night and still have one more row to go, plus a filler block. Maybe on Monday or Tuesday these two will be done? After long arming, while Jim was watching our first Spartan football game of the season, I made the binding for the Farmers Daughter quilt. That will be donated as well and need to get it done. 

I had to clean and rearrange the loft upstairs this morning which is why I'm blogging so late. The grandkids' bookshelves were a disarray of art supplies, books, and a few games. Not to mention dusty as all get out. 

Once I got that done, my shower taken, everything put away that another shelf up there was purged from, I started in on the donation log/labeling. The first five are ready for pick up...

#4-Happy Camper

#1-Pastel Skates

#5-Rainbow X's and O's

#3-Rainbow Chevrons

#2-Cute Monsters
I'm very sad to see these go. Making a quilt sometime takes longer than making a child and I love them just about as much as a child. But they aren't doing any good here. I have to keep telling myself this. Somebody may (or may not) appreciate them but once they are picked up next week, I have to hope they bring a kiddo some joy and comfort during their trying time. 

Jim's at a township meeting and after lunch we'll start tackling the quilts in the garage. These five were just hanging around here in the house waiting to head to a tote for storage. The Gravity and Town and Country quilts were spared donation. There are a few I will NOT part with and these two made the cut so far.
