Piddlin'

For my own mental health I had to get into my sewing room yesterday. I don't have a pressing project. I wish I had one to concentrate on but at the moment I don't. I have two quilts that I have sewn the binding on and I need to do the handwork. I have the quilt for my grandson that I am hand quilting but I need something that is so engrossing I cannot think of anything else. Any ideas?

I did make a liberated star yesterday that I just love. A bunch of these would make a great quilt.


















I am still doing scrap blocks. I didn't like this one so I cut it in half and put it back together.


















This is kind of a wonky scrap log cabin. I really like the scrappiness of this one. Is scrappiness a word?

















Still working on a few houses. I am having an affair with dots. These are scrap blocks made into houses.



































I really like these. How would they do for a whole quilt?
















Two more scrap blocks. They are a great thing to work on when you just need to do something.
















I am still working on my mother's situation. I was so dependent on her caregiver that it has really been a jolt for me. Her caregiver is doing well and will recover but won't be able to come back to work. She did so many things for us. She is almost irreplaceable. I am looking at other options and we may try assisted living. It would give my mother some companionship and more stimulation. I am determined to look forward and make good decisions. Thanks so much for all your kind words. It means so much to me.
