I must say Linn Woodard has inspired me to get back to blogging. I have been working on a number of quilting projects and have all of them in half finished mode. If I blog every day I can keep track of my progress on these undertakings and perhaps they will earn the finished status

One of my unfinished projects is a book I decided to write about the Heidi birds. It is a collection of information about the birds, patterns for the quilt and projects for each of the nine blocks. It is coming along nicely and with this cold weather you would think I would make great progress. However It seems that Dr. Phil and a jigsaw puzzle occupy my time in late afternoon and staying in bed in the morning with my IPad and  some sleepy warm cats cutting into my morning time, it isn't happening. After reading Linn's blog this morning I have a renewed surge of "get it done" coursing through my veins. All I need to do now is get at it.

I am going to use the blog as a reminder of what I want to accomplish and it will show my progress, or lack of it, to me and the outside world This should be a great motivator.

I am off to get started on my new plan. I will share the results with you shortly.

Well, it has been a year since I last posted to my blog. The show at the museum was wonderful and all my students that participated made it a very special event. I had a busy year both with my quilting and family wise. We had numerous grandchildren graduating from college and two of our grandchildren were married. George, My husband and a Presbyterian minister even married our granddaughter Katherine Luther to Nicholas Woods.  We ended the year with celebrations on both sides of our family and told each other how very fortunate we are! I hope 2014 brings much happiness to all our friends and family
