March 29th

 Ok today has been a good day I got a second Quilt of Valor first round of binding put on so that will be my project next week after 2nd round of Chemo that is to happen on the 1st of April no fooling. Tomorrow, I have the pleasure of seeing my oncologist and I don't foresee any earth-shattering news there as I feel fine, and my cold is pretty much gone have a little cough but that is pretty normal for me after a cold for a little while. 

So, I started a new quilt at the beginning of the year with a group of friends it is a pattern by Kaye England and is called Reflections. Several in the group ordered the kit as a block of the month. I didn't really care for the color way not that is was awful but just didn't strike me. So I started messing in EQ to draw up the design and that went well but then for some reason I started wandering on line and found the pattern as a free download on Hancock of Paduca site  . 



Now this is a wonderful quilt in pretty colors but not what I wanted to do. So, my original plan was to dig around in my stash and find some fabrics that would work. the quilt takes 19 fabrics and that was just not working and before Christmas I was at Merry's Stitching a show in rural Jesup area and saw these daisy prints and just kind of thought that would be interesting to make the quilt with. At the time I did not have the yardage figured out as I did not have the pattern found online then. After Christmas I did have the pattern and decided that I was going to go and get the fabric for this project. Check back to find out what I selected.
