I don't think I can ever finish what I have before my eyesight goes ( I probably shouldn't have started blogging! ). I have about 20 unfinished kits from my old needlework days - I think as I'm getting ready to downsize and move to a small apartment because of my job loss 15 months ago in San Francisco's massive budget cuts, they'll go up on Craig's list! My house is full of so much!RNSANEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02841873957894861725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6366247071809239308.post-73467913230469743562010-05-14T19:16:58.143-04:002010-05-14T19:16:58.143-04:00quilting is a beautiful art, shame I could do it e...quilting is a beautiful art, shame I could do it either<br /><br />thanks for your visitlissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11012085842881252635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6366247071809239308.post-41878724545631658052010-05-14T11:37:11.381-04:002010-05-14T11:37:11.381-04:00Thanks for stopping by my blog.

I also love handmade quilts. My mother made a quilt for my daughter when she was a baby:) She also made me one when I was a baby...I still have it and so does my daughter. These are more than blankets...so much time and love is woven into the stitches:) It was an important thing for her to carry on the tradition when my daughter was born, it really meant a lot to me! Thanks for sharing and I look forward to next week!Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00074028393707140831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6366247071809239308.post-22430668416189949172010-05-13T12:44:22.857-04:002010-05-13T12:44:22.857-04:00i am going to have to try these books :Di am going to have to try these books :Dlaterg8rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06533233029216326644noreply@blogger.com
