After a great start on the anniversary quilt I have stopped dead in my
tracks. No blocks were made this week. Perhaps this evening I will be
able to make one or two so the week won't be a total loss. Not really
sure where the week went. Did bind several charity throws (all machine
work) and stitched a very simple red work sample for the store. Can't
even remember any shopping trips. How can one let an entire week slip
by and not remember what she has done with it? Guess I should start
keeping a journal to remind myself of my activities. Of course journal
writing would take time away from quilting.

Well, Susan. Let's look at it this way. Now that you have the charity
throws bound and the sample stitched, you can enjoy doing a block or two for
the anniversary quilt without those other things clamoring for your
attention. You can create some blocks in peace and quiet. Yes. That
sounds good. It's so much nicer when you've rid yourself of things that are
nagging. (Sometimes that may not be entirely legal.) Polly

Sorry to say the charity binding project will go on for weeks. But at
least I can say I did several (four I think) this week. My son just
invited friends over to watch TV tonight which means he can watch
Grandma at the same time and I can disappear into the studio for at
least four hours of peaceful stitching. Grandma enjoys having Tom's
friends in the room although she doesn't always understand what they
are talking about. They are good with her and don't mind her little
crying noises. Chicago is experiencing Mississippi weather of
temperature and humidity over 90. The friends coming over don't have
air conditioning. Do hope they don't plan to spend the night as I
wander around during the night.

This is exactly why I posted that I had started this quilt. I am a
great "starter" but seldom finish anything for my own family. I knew
you guys would keep me honest and stitching.
