Here is "Tender Loving Care" finished and framed! She took approximately 1 year to stitch. I get to keep her for 2 weeks, then she is a gift for my youngest daughter's 40th birthday. Where has the time gone??

I was introduced to minky fabric a couple weeks ago and fell in love with it. I couldn't stop petting the fabric samples the rep handed me. So I got the idea to make an 8x10 comfort puff with minky on one side and quilting cotton on the other. I want to sew columns, stuff a row with polyfill, sew it closed, repeat until I get to the top. I would tuft each square with a 1/4" satin ribbon with the tails on the cotton side. Sooo comforting to pet, hug, rub the ribbon, or just have it in my lap. It will weigh a pound. I also want a matching weighted lap pad. If you didn't know, I'm autistic and adore soft and weighted things. I can't wait for my material to make the prototype set!

Working on these 4 at the moment. And the blue dragon I finished and mailed to a good friend. Pattern: Warrior I want to start the red wreath.

Good Thursday morning everyone. Still that beautiful moon this morning. We are supposed to get snow this weekend, too. I didn't stitch a stitch yesterday because I needed a break from it. Poppy had a good birthday yesterday and she knew something was different. Her latest trick is she jumps up and can catch a ball. Our mayor has called South Bend into a state of emergency because of the shutdown and there is a utility moratorium on those on energy assistance through the month of February. Also, the city donated $60,000 to the food bank and urged the citizens to do what they can to help. Never in my lifetime have I ever seen anything like this. We shopped at W/M yesterday and it was literally empty, which was very strange. I hope today doesn't have that "weird" feeling to it because all I know something is not right. Have a truthful Thursday.

🎼Happy birthday to you, Happy birthday to you, Happy birthday, Sewn Blessings, Happy birthday to you🎶 🎂🎊🎉🎈🥳

Today is Thursday ……………………………………………. Good Morning, MJ 💕

Where can I put the names and wedding date?

Happy birthday Poppy Wednesday morning everyone. She's 2 years old now. It's gone by so fast! DId you guys check out that full moon? Absolutely gorgeous. I stayed outside with the dogs longer this morning listening to the wind and sound of the leaves rustling. Love this kind of morning. Poppy is getting pumpkin pancakes later this morning. I make them with Kodiak pancake and waffle mix and add the pumpkin. Wishing everyone a wonderful Wednesday.
