Quilt piece #3

I have another quilt piece finished. This will probably my last piece I show until I have enough to start putting the quilt together. All the pieces will be similar to the three I've shown. I've decided to make this one a simple lap quilt for the living room(ap. 7' x 4') since this will be my first "big" quilt.

I will be picking my hubby tomorrow.

Simple Womans Daybook

FOR TODAY ...
October 5, 2009


Outside my window...
Birds are cheerfully chirping


I am thinking...
Of my husband who will be home from Iraq soon.


I am thankful for...
This Fall season and the slightly cooler weather.


From the learning rooms...
Brittany reading and narrating from The Kings Daughter. Then just the same things.


From the kitchen...
Fresh bread for today and for dinner....
I have no idea because Stephani did the the menu and she will be cooking dinner.


I am wearing...
Just a plain ole dress.


I am creating...
Still a log cabin quilt. I'm also crocheting a victorian gingham check afgan.


I am going...
To pick up my husband on Wednesday who will be arriving from iraq soon.


I am reading...
I just started the book of Proverbs and will begin the book of John.


I am hoping...
to learn more about nutrition and start eating better.


I am hearing...
sniffling noses (we've had some colds this fall)


Around the house...
I have some cleaning to do before Rob gets home


One of my favorite things...
The smell of children just getting out of bed in the morning.


A few plans for the rest of the week:
to clean up, run some errands, prepare for Rob.


Here is picture thought I am sharing...
Brittany's (my baby) 10th birthday. Great shot!

The Next Piece

Yeah! Here is my second "Log Cabin" for my Log Cabin quilt. Wow, at this rate I might have it finished in 2 years. ( lol) I'll pick up my pace a bit on the cutting. I just wanted to see if I liked each "log cabin" being different, instead of having a paticular theme. I think I will like it just fine.
