Rain, rain go away!

I'm tired of the rain....really tired. I think it's rained everyday for at least a week here. Actually I don't even think it's so much the rain as the gloominess that comes with it. Maybe next week will be nicer! Although the flowers, trees and grass love the rain and everything looks lovely in the front yard!

So since it was rainy and yucky out yesterday I figured I would spend the day in my sewing room, even though I didn't have much energy. Well have you ever had one of those days when you should just quit?!? I made a janiebright block to start with and that went really well. So started work on another one...and it still isn't made...it's in the trash. I'm so frustrated!!! Now this is a block that I've made before and I don't remember having any trouble the first time. Maybe I'll run back upstairs in a little while and look at it again with fresh eyes this morning.

I even took a break while trying to figure out the above mentioned block and I made this

Here's a picture of the quilt (love it)

 

I only made one block as a test block to see if I liked it or not (i do) and to see if I still knew how to sew correctly. My friend Kathy and I will be starting this project for real in a few weeks, probably.

Well I'm off this afternoon for a "Tea" at my Mom's church and a stop in at a college graduation party for a young lady that works for me. The only plus side to today is that my daughter Kara is going with me and we'll get to visit in the car.
