And below is a couple shots, showing then and now....the day they brought them home and now.

I finally chose a fabric for the sashing strips for my crumb blocks. For those of you that don't know, the sashing strip is the strip of fabric that sewn between the blocks to separate them. Sometimes you use them, but you don't have to. I chose this fabric simply because I did not have to worry about having enough of it. I have probably done cut two yards of it. The sashing pieces are 1 3/4 inches by 6 1/2 inches. And that is not enough to finish the quilt. I have been sewing some to the sides of the blocks but have not take a photo.

Roger is not fully back to himself, but he is still better than he was there for so long. This may be a new normal for him. He has no interest in even going out to eat and that was always a fun thing for him. He has had a headache this evening and that always scares me. But his blood pressure was fine.

The other day I went through my books and selected a bunch more to donate to Good Will. I had a few by Pearl S. Buck, and Harold Bell Wright, and John Fox, Jr. I doubt anyone here has heard of the last two. I keep trying t get rid of things. I wish I had the nerve to do a yard sale, but once I decide to get rid of things, I want them gone.

A video I came across...I think you will like it.
Thanks for the pictures of the pups, and especially for that video. ❤️
ReplyDeleteThat's the right name for those dogs. Lap dogs for life. They are just so relaxed.
ReplyDeleteIs your husband drinking enough liquid. Sometimes, when I don't drink enough liquid, I get a headache.
What a sweet video of a strange relationship. Thanks for sharing.
Hugs,
Julia
All these poses are so cute, and everyone is enjoying the hugs.
ReplyDeleteThose pups sure have grown. They look like they are living the good life :)
ReplyDeleteCute video.
Roger's "new norm" is concerning. I DO hope his good health returns. Those pups are just too sweet for words! I look forward to more updates on your quilting.
ReplyDeleteHi, Rose! It's been awhile since I read your blogs. I have been in a slump. I will have to back track and catch up. I am trying to weed out the clutter at my house. I always enjoy your videos and the color of your sashing is so pretty. Yellow is one of my favorite colors. I look forward to seeing the finished quilt.💖
ReplyDeleteOh to have a dogs life!!!! LOL
ReplyDeleteHope all is ok with Roger. I hate that he is not back to his 'before'. Look forward to seeing the quilt.
The pups have grown.
ReplyDeleteYes, I'm sure they will be lap dogs for life. :)
Prayers continue for Roger and you too.
Puppies certainly grow fast!
ReplyDeleteHugz to you and Roger xx
Awww sweet pups..I sure don't know how they get into those poses.
ReplyDeleteGlad Roger is better but the new normal is still a bit troubling. Prayers for more normal! Love the yellow sashing. Can't wait to see the finished project.

Ah great, such sweet photos of Gus and Wilbur, and seeing your family with them too. Glad Roger is feeling better and thinking of you both.
ReplyDeleteSo cute, they grow up so fast. The same can be said for Lorelei. Love your sashing fabrics, can't wait to see the finished quilt.
